And just to confirm what was said earlier, there have always been different, but compatible network table implementations. Unless you are using the LV implementation, you do not need the LV runtime engine. The Java and C++ ones are now a common implementation.

There is a flush command, but it is also limited to a update rate of 100ms. The issue with making data transmit faster is that most robot code updates dashboard variables every 20ms or faster in the main robot loop, and if you were to run a flush it would send all that data even if you only expected to send a few variables. There is no current way to only send specified keys faster.
