Answer:
Up to 650 gallons per hour.
At summer municipal pressure, a supply line that fails at the hose bib connection floods the exterior wall cavity and begins saturating the foundation soil within minutes. If the failure happens while the home is empty, the water runs until someone returns or the meter is noticed. Six hours of undetected flow at 650 gallons per hour means 3,900 gallons against your foundation before anyone knows.
Summer travel and an undetected pipe failure are a combination that never ends well.
