please use a crossover cable between switches (ports designated with X).

see article http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst2960/hardware/installation/guide/higcable.html

if you still experince high delay/slow throughput examine bandwith, interface status, packet drops, error statistics etc...
