I tried running with just the USB cable from the RPi to the hub and without the SD card in and my hub doesn't get warm at all like that.
With just the SD card in and not the USB stick, which /storage is on, so that OpenElec can't finish loading and halts at the OE splashscreen, the hub does get hot, so it's either the firmware or something in the initial stages of OE that's causing this.
I've tested with two boards and two cables, so it's not a faulty board or cable.
I hope this can be fixed as I'm not comfortable with my hub running hot all the time and it might be why I've had some of the problems I've encountered.
