Are you trying to directly send motion commands to EMC or just want to write
your own .NET based custom user interface? If the latter, there are much
easier ways than going through NML.

sai stands for stand alone interpreter.
It allows build of a stand alone (works by itself) interpreter, which - when
you interpret a program - only generates a bunch of text lines (canonical
commands).
It's mostly usefull for debugging, studying the interpreter.

Removing installed software packages will not change the latency.
Latency is almost entirely a consequence of your hardware.
What are your numbers currently?

computer isnt able to keep up with the speeds the configs are trying to

this talks about using the latency test to set the timings.
