We leverage OPNET ( http://www.opnet.com/ ) tools quite a bit for 
charting out application performance issues.  It can do some 
measurements with raw packet captures, but the real magic comes when you 
use the installable agents on the client & server which will break down 
a transaction into "network" and "server wait" components so you can see 
what percentage of the wait time is actually network related.
