Default Hose connector internal diameter

There are various places in the garden where it would be convenient to
connect additional lengths of hose to fixed hoses (overflows off the
waterbutts, for example). The Hozelock connectors make it easy to do
this, but I've noticed the internal diameter of these is tiny, far
smaller than the diameter of the hose. Doesn't this significantly
decrease the flow rate? (Which is important when trying to get rid of as
much as possible because the butt is about to overflow.) Are there
connectors (other than ducktape) without this disadvantage?
