thanks for this clarification Uwe
Could I include the r_env_cache/ directory in the package
and then assume that the CRAN checks use
Sweave(.... , driver=weaver())
in which case the process takes about 10 seconds?

Dear All
I am preparing a number of vignettes that require a very long time to
process with Sweave. The longest one takes 10 hours. I love the weaver
package!
Is a package that includes such a computationally intensive vignette
acceptable on CRAN? Are there any guidelines here?
Robin,
please try to keep a package below 5 minutes check time. You know,
it's hard to perform daily checks for 1700 packages if just one
already runs for 10 hours.
In reasonable circumstances, we do have exclude lists, but it probably
does not make sense to provide that computational intensive vignettes.
Perhaps you can provide some intermediate results in form of Rdata
files in order to reduce runtime of your vignette's creation (and
checks!).
Best wishes,
Uwe
