[R-pkg-devel] Question about examples/tests run-time

[Mallory Flynn]

Hello,

I am hoping this is the correct way to pose a question about my submission, which I can’t seem to fix 2 NOTES for.  They are related to run time:
Flavor: r-devel-windows-x86_64
Check: examples, Result: NOTE
Examples with CPU (user + system) or elapsed time > 10s
           user system elapsed
countTree 17.66   0.13   17.78
estTree   17.52   0.02   17.54
wmmTree   15.70   0.02   15.72

Flavor: r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc
Check: examples, Result: NOTE
Examples with CPU (user + system) or elapsed time > 5s
            user system elapsed
countTree 14.218  0.077  14.401
wmmTree   14.049  0.028  14.086
estTree   14.046  0.012  14.066

The package enables easy implementation of a sampling method for population size estimation on a highly correlated tree - since it’s sequentially sampled, it’s expected to run long compared to other functionality, even on smaller examples. 
I have added many layers to try to shorten examples and tests, including “donttest”, “dontrun”, “if (interactive())”, and reducing toy examples to what I believe is the smallest they can be to still demonstrate utility.  I also included the “skip_on_cran()” function in tests which run longer.

Does anyone else have any ideas on how I can eliminate these notes?

Any help is very much appreciated!!
Thank you!
