Location of Image Sending to dashboard/Making labview more efficient

Hello, I was wondering where in the labview code the camera image is actually being sent to the dashboard. I am trying to get rid of it in an attempt to reduce lag that presented itself after I added a 3 step vision processing script to the vision processing vi.

Consequently, I was also wondering if anybody knew any ways to make the labview code run more efficiently. Specifically, after I implemented the vision processing, the images being sent to the classmate would only update every 30 seconds or so and occasionally, the robot would continue to drive for 1-2 seconds after letting go of any controller input.
Any tips on getting rid of this?

I already tried getting rid of the build dashboard data vi and adding a 10 millisecond wait to the main loop and vision processing loop, neither of which really did much.

Thanks!
