I have found win-builder timings come close, but only close. My experience is that the CRAN timings were uniformly slower than those on win-builder. But I also find that I can get quite significant differences between win-builder-release and win-builder-devel. So I also take the slowest that

And one more (last for a while): presumably there is no way to check CRAN windows timing without submitting to CRAN ... ? (I will obviously do my best by doing arithmetic on the tests that I set to be skipped, but it would be nice to be able to double-check without wasting everyone's time ..

Thanks all for the help. The reward (as usual) is another dumb question. If I add up the elapsed times listed in https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/lme4_1.1-26_20201122_184744/Windows/examples_and_tests/examples_x64/lme4-Ex.timings I get 21.43 seconds. But the output in

My submission from auto-check, and I'm not sure why because Windows and Debian checks both list "OK" and there are no unresolved problems on the CRAN status ... My current guess is that the problem is with the too-long check time on Windows (NOTE: "Overall checktime 18 min > 10 min") I gu
