I had already radically shortened the LYX file. The preamble now too. I am enclosing both of these with this mail.
And I don't work with Makeindex because I can use texindy to enforce a DUDEN order in the subject index. If you can tell me how I can do this with Makeindex, I might be able to switch to Makeindex.

Paul,
Huh! It was turned on, but I've no recollection of ever doing this. And, as
I wrote, it's never before been an issue. So I turned it off.

Could be. I opened LyX, looked in preferences (but not Display), exited,
then found Display and turned off instant preview. There were to *.tex files
using the CPUs after I exited the second time. Killed both processes.

If yesterday's files were in /tmp find should have found them. It didn't.
Anyway, however the instant preview became active it's now off. Must be
pandemic related, eh? :-)
Stay well,

Rich,
The seldom benevolent digital deities have been on a bit of a rampage
lately, based on personal experience. I don't know if it's caused by the
pandemic, global warming, a surfeit of politicians (note that I'm
listing disasters in ascending order of severity) or just random timing.
Anyway, hopefully the issue is fixed. The (presumed) fact that instant
preview produced LaTeX processes that spun their digital wheels
indefinitely might, however, indicate that you have something (math
inset? other sort of inset?) that is indigestible to LaTeX, in which
case the same problem may arise if and when you actually do compile the
parent document.
Or maybe not. I've given up predicting the outcome of anything digital.
Paul

Hi Rich,
on quit LyX removes it?s temporary files and directories. This doesn?t happen
on sudden death of LyX. The question now is: is /tmp the location for temporary
files and directories?
On MacOS it?s not /tmp if you don?t set the path explicitly to /tmp.

I was talking about a _short_ example file! Your complete tikz stuff in
the preamble has
_nothing_ to do with the index problem ...
You are using texindy for the index. My solution works with makeindex.
