*Very* old info suggested:

     /var/cache/dnf is when dnf is used with superuser
     /var/tmp/dnf-<your_user_name>-<hash> is when you run it as you

Have a look, see if that's still the case.

I did check this out and as you have suggested there is data in both sets of paths but the data in /var/tmp/dnf-<your_user_name>-<hash> is not maintained by the current dnf package. Looking at /var/cache/dnf begs the question of where is it specified for each repository how many cached copies dnf is going to keep. For the Fedora, Updates, Fedora Cisco, Rpmfusion-Free and Rpmfusion-Nonfree it seems to be keeping 5 copies, but for non-Fedora repos it seems to only be keeping 1 copy?

It looks like it has separate directories for different mirrors. The non-Fedora repos probably only have a single server.
