OK. I did found the rcpp-devel mailing-list.
But I though it was a developers of the rcpp-package.
So it is ok to post beginners questions to rcpp-devel?

Basically I was searching for ways to compile to C++ code a single time and
not everything the R code runs.

Like I don't recompile my pure C++ programs everything I run them, only
if I change something.

But that is different with C++ in R? That it is normal to compile the C++
code
for each run?
