The most efficient system is one that runs continuously at the worst heat load. Reason is that all the heat pockets have been eliminated. Air is circulating, freon is flowing, effect of duct heat absorption from the attic is minimized, condenser is receiving cooling air, and maximum moisture is being removed which in itself improves comfort....cool dry air is much more comfortable than hot humid air....ala the Gulf Coast, Texas, Florida....BTDT and I went to school on the subject. Every time your AC cycles, it has to start the averaging process all over and those delays cost you money in addition to the start up current surge.
That's one of the neat things about room AC's the cooling loop is right there in the unit and there is no attic heat load to consider. Additionally, the room AC routes the condensed moisture (water) from the room to the rear of the AC where the condenser coil is located and a slinger ring on the condenser fan blade, slings this water onto the condenser coil and you enjoy the added efficiency of the "heat (removal) of vaporization" which your central unit doesn't have and costs you that much more money.
I built my house with my family by hand 30 years ago on that concept and my light bill last month was about $70 and this month was about $95 and I live in N. Texas....had a lot of 90 thru 100+ degree days in this months cycle.....hot water and cooking are gas. I have a 2400+ sq. ft. house.
So if some AC replacement guy wants to sell you a 5 ton AC for a 1000 sq. ft insulated home in the USA, run him off....unless you have 6 kids and they are in and out all day and leave the doors open and all that stuff.
