generally the first node would fill the cache, and then the 2nd node
would reuse the data downloaded by the first machine (assuming both
are the same fedora version). You just have to make sure to do one
and let it finish then after it is done move on to the second.

I have three computers set up to look and work the same, however this
one is booted every morning, the others not so often. Yesterday's update
was unusually large since it had not been done for a week. There's also
a portable configured similarly but rarely used. With time they tend to
squire different applications making each a little different so I'm not
sure how well a local collection of updates would work. I thought about
it at times but usually just drop the idea.
It's simple enough to just do the updates during the "free" time from
midnight to five and that's what I usually do. When my usage runs low
for the month I sometimes elect to run an update during the day. That's
what happened yesterday, it said it was a 374 MB download, I thought
well it will reduce to much less with drpm's, and was surprised when I
saw none.
It's not a disaster, just a surprise and an annoyance. I figure I can
use ~800MB a day and stay within limits. Had I realized dnf was not
using the delta rpms I might have waited.
