Answer & Explanation:

Efficiency in the virtual world is closely related to that of the real world. In programming it is how fast an application run and robust (concise and small) it is coded. similarly efficiency is used when also explaining how fast you can manage your time while performing a task (like production). so in terms of similarity we will consider speed but for difference you may have to add other parameters when considering efficiency outside of programming.
