Hi Tim,

It would be bad to see you abandon LyX...

My difficulty to help you here is that I do not have access to a macOS 
machine. One thing you could try is to run LyX with a profiler such as 
Instruments from Xcode. I am not sure what you will obtain with a 
release version of LyX though, since it does not have much debug 
information.
