Hard/Notchy Shifting

I have a 2000 Boxster S with 68K miles on it. Even with careful attention to fully depressing the clutch and moving the shifter smoothly through the gate the car has hard/notchy shifting. (There is no gear grinding though.) This is partiularly for 3-6. The clutch engages nice and far down on the pedal travel.

My mechanic has looked at the car and says the cable length is good (possibly slightly long, do these stretch over time?) and the ball/clevis connections at each end are also OK as well as trans lube level and type. He has also driven it and says the shifting is normal. It seems to me though that it should be smoother like for 1st to 2nd. Any thoughts or suggestions? Is there anything possibly hanging up in the shifter mechanism under the boot itself that might be causing this? Thanks!
