Specifically:

engine size x jump drive efficiency = jump ship size


Therefore jump drive efficiency is the proportion of your ship that is jump engine. 

Note that jump drive efficiency is one less for commercial drives.

The efficiency relates to the size of the engine that can be built.  The higher the efficiency the smaller the jump engine that can be built, allowing more mission critical equipment to be installed.
