I made a blog post about mallets today, with a look at mallet length. As skoota says, it's more or less trial and error to find one comfortable, but with a few other considerations to make with respect to how you want to play.
That's pretty comprehensive, although you might want to mention that large holes in the side of the mallet have been used to aid controlling the ball, but I think holes above a certain size(57mm?) are now outlawed, I think?
I think you've under played the advantages of shorter mallets...

Mine are 98cm though.
