Did you try spinning it up higher? You have to get it spinning above the speed it would if already in gear. Don't be afraid to really rev it then disengage the clutch quickly before it spins down.

If it improves just after warming up then I don't think there's anything wrong with the trans.

If you change to another fluid like Redline MT90, it will help a little. It will do so at the expense of becoming significantly noisier. Again, this is my firsthand experience.
