Thank you so much for your help @RudiC , I'll try your tips this night and post here back. I walked a little yesterday with this codem and figured out how to use xargs to "parallelize" the jobs to curl:
But the problem is that I can't rename the file as I want. So what I did is cd to my destination directory path, and then I run the code above. But I notice that if there is some similar filenames in differents URLs the first file is overwrote by the last one. Because of that, if I want to keep the same destination directory, be able to rename the output is mandatory.
Basically I am needing to Download (using curl) in the background some data from(link here), with stderr redirected to /dev/null, to a file named taxcode

curlopt_maxfilesize
CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE(3)NAME
CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE - maximum file size allowed to download
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE, long size);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long as parameter. This allows you to specify the maximum size (in bytes) of a file to download. If the file requested is found
larger than this value, the transfer will not start and CURLE_FILESIZE_EXCEEDED will be returned.
The file size is not always known prior to download, and for such files this option has no effect even if the file transfer ends up being
larger than this given limit. This concerns both FTP and HTTP transfers.
If you want a limit above 2GB, use CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE_LARGE(3).
DEFAULT
None
PROTOCOLS
FTP and HTTP
EXAMPLE
TODO
AVAILABILITY
Always
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK
