it is possible the trim pump is going away, either the motor or the valving in it. when you are accelerating hard and trimming up it requires the most pressure to move the drive and so it is loading the pump more than any other time.

What does it mean to short? Does the motor shakes or the prop grabs funny? See if you lower the trim the problem goes away. Check to see if the trailing edge of the prop is cupped. NON CUPPED PROPS SLIP AND RE GRAB. Even cupped props chatter or slip if over trimmed.
