title: How to stop RStudio from rendering nb.html on save of an R Markdown document
body: <p>RStudio renders <code>mynotebook.nb.html</code> file every time R Markdown document <code>mynotebook.Rmd</code> is saved. This process does not involve running code in chunks, so it is much faster than knitting a notebook into <code>mynotebook.html</code>. However, for large <code>.Rmd</code> documents, saving <code>nb.html</code> files can take a long time, and, unfortunately, it is required to wait for it to finish before one can start using the notebook again and run code in chunks. </p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to configure RStudio to not to create <code>nb.html</code> files on save of an R Markdown document?</p>
