It does have the issue. 

rpm-ostree links to libdnf which is doing all the same things.
As I commented in the bug though, to do default image based updates, rpm-ostree 
very intentionally *does not* load the repo metadata, it's just replicating the 
filesystem tree, which takes very little memory.

The issue really has nothing to do with the client side - it's all about the 
*repository metadata size*.  That's why I reassigned the bug to "distribution".

The reason this bug isn't hitting RHEL right now is simply just because the 
default RHEL repositories are much smaller - also crucially things like many 
-devel packages are in a separate repository.

I don't see a need to rehash all of this *again* - the linked BZ already 
contains everything said in this thread, and the BZ itself is mainly rehashing 
a 4 year old thread https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1955
