Can it be increased? Trying to build multiple Infernal Darkness items often requires mining these commodities for about 2-3 hours to get the required half-life commodities. Killing the entire asteroid spawn once normally results in 2-3 of each half-life commodity, and I would like to see that amount increased to not make it a "meh" experience to build these lovely items.

Its not that bad imo, ID items are quite cheap to make so some work instead seems ok.

It becomes an issue when you are making items that takes 30-35 of each commodity, and if you build more than one item at once.

Why are you building more than one at once?

Two hours seems about fair really for such a high tech item. If you're building multiple then it's just going to take more time, or get a friend to help.
