Etymology
'efficiently-distributed' originates from the combination of 'efficiently' and 'distributed'. 'Efficiently' comes from Latin 'efficientem', meaning 'accomplishing', and 'distributed' comes from Latin 'distribuere', meaning 'to divide or assign'.
'Efficiently' evolved from the Latin 'efficientem' through Old French 'efficient', while 'distributed' evolved from Latin 'distribuere' through Old French 'distribuer'.
Initially, 'efficiently' meant 'accomplishing' and 'distributed' meant 'to divide or assign'. Over time, they combined to describe a state of organized allocation.
