Could it be you're in G61 (Exact Path) or G61.1 (Exact Stop) mode?  That 
would produce the behavior you're seeing.

If that's the case, try switching to G64 (Path Blending) mode.  It tries 
to keep speed up, and sacrifices a small and controllable amount of 
accuracy to do so.  The optional P argument specifies how much accuracy 
you're willing to trade away for speed.

I usually run with G64 P0.0005 (my machine units are inches).


Here's the docs for G61 and G64:
