Your short cable is defective. Throw it out. There is no such thing as a
USB 2.0 cable except a marketing hype label. If you visit the official USB
specifications site <http://www.usb.org/home> you will discover that in the
progression from USB 1.0 to 1.1 to 2.0 there has never been a change in the
spec for cables.
I suspect that the cable has a bad connection and the system is quietey
doing a zillion retries to get the data.
