I don't think that those lags are directly related.
But if you want to uninstall it, try this:

sudo rm -R /home/pi/RetroPie

sudo rm -R /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup

sudo rm -R /opt/retropie

sudo rm -R /home/pi/.emulationstation

sudo rm -R /usr/bin/emulationstation

sudo rm -R /etc/emulationstation

sudo apt-get remove -y libsdl1.2-dev screen scons libasound2-dev pkg-config libgtk2.0-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-system-dev zip python-imaging libfreeimage-dev libfreetype6-dev libxml2 libxml2-dev libbz2-dev libaudiofile-dev libsdl-sound1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev joystick fbi gcc-4.7 automake1.4 libcurl4-openssl-dev libzip-dev build-essential nasm libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libsdl1.2-dev libvorbis-dev libpng12-dev libvpx-dev freepats subversion libboost-serialization-dev libboost-thread-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev cmake

Of course replace /home/pi/ with /home/osmc/

I also experienced some lag after installing this. I'll try to uninstall the way you suggested and report back

Sadly I didn't get a chance to try it. I ended up formatting the SD card and reinstalling OSMC and retropie individually on different sd cards. I can confirm though that now OSMC has no lag even when playing 1080p content on a raspberry pi 3.

Maybe installing libsdl makes some changes to the video that slow down media playback, but this is very strange indeed.

Anyway thanks @mcobit for the good work!

Something bodged my retroarch key mapping of controllers on my pi3 install of retrosmc. A simple "uninstall" feature would save some time on reformatting SD cards whenever something goes wrong.
(I'm not getting into the endless torment of trying to get it to work, many are called few are chosen, I just re-install)
Anyways, you have my +1 on this request.

mcobit commented

You can revert the keymappings by deleting their config files.
No need to reinstall...

Also RetroPie Setup script has an uninstaller and package manager that allows you to uninstall all retropie packages or single ones.
