Verdict: As suspected, Magical Efficiency really sucks. I have a whole bunch of data, but it really doesn't seem worth typing in. Here's an overview:

5 ME: average 91% of normal spell cost
10 ME: average 81%
20 ME: average 75%
30 ME: average 58%

Note though that ME is more consistent with higher casting cost spells. With Minor Heal (cost of 2), I once got a free casting with 5 ME, but 5 ME will usually give no reduction. On the other hand, Arcane Shield (cost of 20) gave me results exclusively between 15-19 with 5 ME. With 30, the results were all between 11 and 17, mostly 13s and 14s.

Free points from Pure Spirit or whatever aren't bad, but this is definitely not worth spending skill points on.
