"Efficient" as in energy efficient, human time efficient, or efficient at preventing mold/bacteria etc.?
I suspect it is more efficient at creating germ-free clean dishes, given the temperatures and steam that the wares are exposed to.
I suspect it is quicker than human time than hand washing
It might be slower than human time from stopwatch dirty dish to clean dish.
It might use more water than a hand washer who is very careful with water.
It almost certainly costs more to use a dishwasher. Capital, costs, electricity, repairs, tabs.

Though you shouldn't worry too much about germs. The next time you are your food touches the dishes, they are all germed up again anyway. The amount of germ removal you get from hand-washing dishes is sufficient. (A dishwasher is still a good idea for saving on human labour.)
