Just off the top of my head you might check in your PhpMyAdmin ( I take 
it that's what your using) to see if there's a max transfer size set for 
database export. 2,000 KB sounds awfully familiar for some reason. Have 
you tried the "WordPress Database Backup" plugin for downloading your 
database instead of going through PhpMyAdmin? For full or partial WP DB 
backups with the option to download any plugin tables that might have 
been created it works very well and should at least tell you if the 
problem occurs just when you're exporting the database as in your 
example or if it also happens when using the plugin via your Admin. Just 
a late night thought.
