Is it possible to download comments using ytcog-dl? Existing ones (forget the name) take more time to scrape the comments that it take to download a video.

Not yet. But coming soon.

I don't know how the performance will be. It will have to make multiple requests for each batch of comments. So if there are many thousands of comments on a video it could some time. You can't make parallel multiple requests to speed it up, either, because each request returns a continuation code, which is needed in order to make next request, and so on until completed.
