Thanks for the prompt response. My solution was to copy the DVD image that I
was using to the hard drive, create an /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-local.repo,
disable all repos, and then enable fedora-local. The speed increase for the
rest of the additional software was well worth the time it took to set this
up. When the machine is on online, I will see what effect leaving the local
repository active has on performance.
