The problem with full df-ccsd is that it is not a good method. There are 
certain terms in the CCSD equations (3- and 4-external contributions) which 
require large DF basis sets to be approximated and where DFing does not 
improve the scaling or runtime. It might actually be slower than a 
conventional calculation.
(In the local case the situation is completely different, however).

You can specify {df-lccsd(t0),domsel=1.0}. I think that should do the trick.
