This would be consistent with the observed increase in residual xylose concentrations with decreasing glucose feed (an already relatively inefficient source of PEP), the relative independency between residual xylose concentration and glycerol feed (a good source of PEP), and the decreased growth rate on xylose when Pal/Tal was introduced (drain on PEP for p-hydroxybenzoate production).

This result emphasizes that the traditional DEA model which treats the efficiency evaluation like a black box and ignores the internal processes is not appropriate for identifying inefficient DMUs and evaluating the degree of their inefficiencies since it provides little insight into the inefficient sources and the locations where the inefficiency may occur.
