How is my HE drier more efficient if I have to run a load multiple times to actually dry clothes?

I used to have a drier from the late 90s which dried my clothing in one go. The one I have now takes 3 or 4 goes. Apparently the new one is more efficient but I don’t understand how that can be.

Wouldn’t it take up more energy due to the extra cycles?

edit- I would really appreciate it if someone explained how the drier is more efficient than my old one instead of questioning my laundering habits. I clear the lint trap and load small loads. I even switch the settings to “most dry”. I’m not the issue here. This “high efficiency” drier is.

I don’t know if it will help you, but I had the same issue and what fixed it is clearing the hose that leads to the outside. It was full of lint and had probably never been cleaned. It’s a $14 cleaning kit from your local home depot and watch a few youtube videos on it. (I also just put a leafblower down the hole and watched all the lint fly out)
