 I can't comment on why the empty packet to the client (unless its an ACK or 
similar), but in your 10046 trace you have a number of very quick more data 
to client waits (like 10-20 milliseconds) and then one rather slow one. I'd 
be intrigued as to what data was in the 'slow' packet. It may be (though I 
don't think it should be a more data wait, but rather a message from wait) 
an indication that indeed the client is doing something slow with that 
particular packet. 

 
  Any help understanding this would be appreciated.
