I may have had this exact same problem - not sure. Is this a dual extruder print? I had it with the default profile for 0.8mm in cura.
One of the problems is that the default profile does a retraction on layer change. wtf? I don't know why. None of the other profiles do that. It's a bug. I reported it but it apparently was ignored. So check that - something like "retract on layer change".
Also there were speed changes and flow changes that were the major issue. I changed my settings so that line width was ALWAYS 0.8 (changing line width on infill can lower the pressure in the head and it takes time to recover - your 10mm issue). This was the larger issue.
So set all lines widths to be the same (0.8mm) and set all SPEEDS to be the same (all printing speeds - travel speeds should be >=150mm/sec).

Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
