Flavor: r-devel-windows-ix86+x86_64 Check: Overall checktime, Result: NOTE Overall checktime 12 min > 10 min

A CRAN package check should not take longer than 10 minutes. Please considerably reduce the check time of your package to stay below the threshold of 10 minutes... This can for example be achieved by:

I have modified the package and now the checktime is Installation time in seconds: 76 Check time in seconds: 309

• running tests for arch 'i386' ... [73s] OK Running 'testthat.R' [73s] ** running tests for arch 'x64' ... [86s] OK Running 'testthat.R' [86s]
• checking re-building of vignette outputs ... [73s] OK

If there are references describing the methods in your package, please add these in the description field of your DESCRIPTION file in the form...

I have added a link to the arXic pre-print.

\dontrun{} should only be used if the example really cannot be executed (e.g. because of missing additional software, missing API keys, ...) by the user. That's why wrapping examples in \dontrun{} adds the comment ("# Not run:") as a warning for the user. Does not seem necessary. Please replace \dontrun with \donttest.

Done.

Please do not modifiy the .GlobalEnv. This is not allowed by the CRAN policies.

Please do not modify the global environment (e.g. by using <<-) in your functions. This is not allowed by the CRAN policies.

I have removed the <<-. I don't think there are any other modifications of .GlobalEnv in the code.

Please always explain all acronyms/abbreviations in the description text in the Description field of the DESCRIPTION file.

LASSO has been replaced by Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator.

Please add \value to all .Rd files for exported functions and explain the functions results in the documentation. f.i.: print.cv.higlasso.Rd If a function does not return a value, please document that too, e.g. \value{None}.

print.cv.higlasso now has a value

running tests for arch 'i386' ... [532s] OK running tests for arch 'x64' ... [482s] OK ** checking re-building of vignette outputs ... [278s] OK

This is much more than the CRAN threshold oif 10 min for a package check, so please reduce by using toy data/few iterations and perhaps run less important tests only locally.

This has been reduced (according to winbuilder) to running tests for arch 'i386' ... [41s] OK running tests for arch 'x64' ... [44s] OK ** checking re-building of vignette outputs ... [251s] OK
