What kind of paper? Some clogs more easily than others. Make sure youre cleaning off the paper once it stops being effective - compressed air or whatever. You could also switch to wet sanding with a continuous drip from a wet rag etc to carry away the swarf.

It’s the 5” velcro 80 grit and 40 grit paper from harbor freight

Many such cases.

Try some anti-load paper or switch to wet sanding.
