Description

There is a script in the dataset vignette (which contains a script for downloading a dataset from S3.  However, the files are large and the default R timeout for downloads is 60 seconds.  The instructions should be updated to recommend the user increase their timeout option value, e.g.:

 

options(timeout = max(300, getOption("timeout")))
