My guess is that efficiency should be used to adjust a task's duration. If a task has a duration of 1 day and a resource with an efficiency of 0.5 gets assigned to it the task should be scheduled for two days. This is what the man page leads me to believe.
I can find no evidence this works. I went to the test example and changed the efficiency of of the one resource to 3. I then changed the duration of all three tasks to be 3. I would expect that the tasks should only be scheduled for one day. The tasks are scheduled for three days.
I then took the same example and reset the task duration's to 1. I then changed the resource's efficiency to 0.33. I would have expected all tasks to be scheduled for 3 days. Opensched scheduled all the task for one day.
What am I missing?
