John,
the short answer is it won't work (it defeats the purpose of vignettes).
Thank you for confirming that.
However, this sounds like a purely hypothetical question - CRAN
policies allow long-running vignettes if they declared.
I assume that we'd declare the long-running vignette in our submission
note to CRAN. Maybe that's better than pre-building the HTML vignettes
in the package.
There's also the "BuildVignettes: false" field in DESCRIPTION, but its
use is discouraged, and I don't think it allows you to ask CRAN to build
some vignettes but not all.
Thanks, I wasn't aware of that. There are two vignettes, one of which is
slow to build.
Given Simon's suggestion, we'll likely submit the package with a note
about the long-running vignette, and if that proves problematic, we can
use R.asp to pre-build the HTML vignettes.
Best,
John

Hello Dirk,
Thank you (and Kevin and John) for addressing my questions.
No one directly answered my first question, however, which was
whether the approach that I suggested would work. I guess that the
implication is that it won't, but it would be nice to confirm that
before I try something else, specifically using R.rsp.
Best,
John

For completeness, that approach also works directly with Sweave.
Described in
a blog post by Mark van der Loo in 2019, and used in a number of
packages
including a few of mine.
That said, I also used the approach described by John Harrold and
cached
results myself.
