I'd like to know what the efficiency gap is - you can see in the graph that early on, quic is better saturating the connection, while TCP is still scaling up. The other problem is related to how TCP connections work with HTTP/1.1 or similar protocols - one TCP connection per concurrent HTTP request, where with quic any arbitrary number of requests are all part of the same quic stream. It doesn't seem unfair that adding more TCP connections doesn't make quic reduce its share of bandwidth, any more than adding 1000 concurrent http requests into the quic stream should reduce TCP's share of bandwidth.
