Wouldn`t putting in pistons with larger holes have the same effect as changing the shockoil to a lighter oil?
And: I notice that some are drilling extra holes in the pistons. Wouldn`t they achive the same effect just by putting in pistons with larger holes?

Yes, that's the basic concept.

Are those to things even possible to achive at the same time?

Yes and No, at some point or another any set-up is about compromise.
You're asking for perfection, and as one world-class driver was once quoted as saying, "You can't have a perfect set-up unless the track surface is perfect."

To me it's about compromising (there's that nasty word again), while figuring out where I lose the most time comparatively.
If I'm losing so much time on the big jumps that I can't make it up with my set-up relative to the rest of the track, then I'll go stiffer so as to not sacrifice so much in the jump section. Whereas if I'm sacrificing so much time on the rest of the track and only the big jump section is perfect, then I'll soften my set-up to gain back time on the rest of the track.
But in few situations have a set of jumps dominated a layout that it was worth having it land perfectly off a couple of big jumps, where the other 75% percent of the layout (where the big jumps didn't come into play) that the rest of the course didn't take precedence and take higher priority in my set-up.
