Converter efficiency question

We all know there is a certain amount of inefficency in a non-locked torque converter, but does the amount of torque the engine makes affect how much? Is the slip always the same at all rpm and power levels? Can a converter exhibit 90% efficiency in a 300 hp motor, and 95% in a 600 hp motor? Just curious. Thanks
