Description of problem: The whole idea of downloading DB files to speed-up deps resolving/upgrading probably missed it's main goal. Since those DB files are getting absurdly big (It's like over 80MB of downloaded junk - were just few things in reality has changed) When I want to install simple small package file like some 200KB lib-dev it's getting ridiculous I've to wait even minutes before it actually start to download requested package. I guess - we should introduce '2G Tuesdays' like Facebook people have - so someone would design actually something usable - current logic to download tens of MB of DB data to upgrade single package doesn't scale... And downloading these multi-MB files many times per day to be ready when executing 'dnf install' - is NOT a solution! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-1.1.3-1.fc24.noarch How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
