Not readily configurable, suppose you could put a feature request in, but meanwhile, if you are feeling adventurous, you can tweak universe generation code to generate fewer fields to begin with, in the fileDistribution is uniform(0.1, 0.15) which per comment means 10% to 15% empty no star systems get a field.
Then some fields also get chance to be generated during turn processing:This creates a field if a random number between 0 and 1 falls below max(0.00015 * radius, 0.03) where readius is the universe radius. Huh. Well at any rate that's 3% chance to generate a field per turn, or whatever the universe size dictates otherwise as higher chances (?)
