Dear Helmut,
Maybe you can move your vignettes (source and rendered version) to the inst
folder. I think that this makes the files available to the user without
being recompiled. Downside it that they are no longer recognised as
vignettes. Therefore I would also add a short overview vignette describing
and linking to the precompiled vignettes. Something like
browseURL(system.file("precompiled.html", package = "yourpackage"))
