Not as efficient as native, sure. But have you actually tested it?
If browsers were inherently slow why do plain HTML+CSS pages (no JS) run nicely? Then consider the fact that modern JS runtimes are competitive with ART (native Java/Kotlin apps on Android). Where is the main source of inefficiency?
Browsers are just another runtime - you can write inefficient code in anything, even native.
