(Or, at least, to a > significant amount!) In your situation I think I would look into setting up a caching proxy such as Squid. It should be able to cache many kinds of files you may need on several of your machines, not only rpms downloaded by dnf but maybe also some common webpages, javascript or images you download via a browser from several machines. This is a need I had for a set of 2-3 Debian systems, where I simply installed a pre-made configuration dedicated to .deb packages [1]. I'm not knowledgeable enough to update the configuration for caching HTML and images though. Does anybody have enough Squid knowledge to setup such a proxy for rpm and more?
