I have yet to see event based software that is more efficient than plain old sync code.

Big threaded reactor style designs can be, but those aren't exactly event driven.

Small events generally are the opposite of performance, increasing concurrency and synchronisation dependencies between threads.

If you meant responsiveness or latency, maybe you have a point, but current UI frameworks have been event driven since about forever.
