Baochen,
Were we ever able to reproduce this?
Do we normally always get a response to DELETE_KEY but in some instances it
comes very late (or not at all)?
If we remove the wait, is there any concern that a late arriving DELETE_KEY
response might be processed as a response to a subsequent SET_KEY command?
