Does bunnyhopping make you go faster?

Sprinting while holding space bar, does it make you go faster than just sprinting or is it just me?

[Thorfinn]

I used to think it did. What I think is more likely is that there's a whole lot more to see, so the boredom doesn't hit as much. It doesn't seem to take any longer to go from home to my current mine whether I'm jumping or not.
