I'm wondering, why does it do this? Do I have too small of a hose? Do the cheap HF fittings I'm using not have enough flow? Or is this just normal for a small tank setup?

What size line are you running?

If I remember my high school physics, volume through a line is a function of cross-sectional area and pressure. If you go to a larger line and all associated fittings, then you should increase volume through the line.
