Mickey,
5-20 minutes isn't so bad. I've used bags that made the pump go every 30 seconds or so.
More likely, the problem is with the closure system. Make sure you have no dust, etc., in that area, and that you fold it over evenly. Try wiping the closure area with a wet sponge and leave it wet. If that helps, you've isolated the problem.
I've found holes by spraying the bag with water tinted with food coloring or other dye. The water seeps in when the pressure is on. But that method may not work with really small holes, which yours would be if it really is a hole.
