Looking into I see that every transaction in that database on the master gets sent to the replica. 99.999+% of them are empty transactions ('B' message and 'C' message with nothing in between) because the transactions don't touch any tables in the publication, only non-replicated tables. Is doing it this way necessary for some reason? Couldn't we hold the transmission of 'B' until something else comes along, and then if that next thing is 'C' drop both of them?

That is not optimal. Those empty transactions is a waste of bandwidth.
We can suppress them if no changes will be sent. test_decoding
implements "skip empty transaction" as you described above and I did
something similar to it. Patch is attached.
