superficially, this suggests that you should be less ambitious in the 
examples or data analysis in the vignette.

More deeply, this usually means that your code is written inefficiently. 
You should try to identify the slowest functions, and try to improve 
their performance, usually by writing them as 'vectorized' (e.g., 
colSums(x)) rather than 'iterative' (e.g., apply(x, 2, sum)).
