Depends on the system, and it's design. Most standard sprinkler systems are designed for a 30 gallon per minute rate for each sprinkler head. Standpipes and hose lines have other design criteria, as do deluge systems. They ALL take a LOT of water!

What is a Fire Sprinkler alarm valve?
Some fire sprinkler systems have a valve for testing the water-flow alarm by allowing water to flow to the alarm, or through the alarm-sensing pipe, without activating any sprinklers in the rest of the system.
How does dry riser sprinkler system works?
The heat of the fire causes sprinklers to trip, releasing nitrogen or some other gas held under pressure in the system through the sprinklers. This action activates a dry pipe valve within the sprinkler system which releases fire protection water which has been restrained within the system, through the sprinklers with the intention of dousing if not extinguishing the fire.
