Hello,

I believe you are referring to this report (February 1997)
 http://www.w3.org/Talks/970210HTTP/all.htm

I found a more recent version of the paper (June 1997)
 http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/Performance/Pipeline.html

In the later version, the "eff" column is replaced by "%ov"
where "%ov is the percentage of overhead bytes due to TCP/IP packet
headers."

From a quick glance:

  %ov = (1.0 - eff) * 100

I'm not sure (and am not one of the authors of the report), but it looks
like they replaced "eff" with "%ov," which perhaps was more
communicative.

I'm cc'ing Chris Lilley, one of the authors of the papers.

Hope that helps,

 _ Ian

P.S. The reason I dug into this a bit is that I co-wrote a summary
of the report many years ago:
