Is the efficiency of a DC DC converter Load independent? (www.meanwell.com)

I'm currently looking into various DC DC converters and was confused that the Meanwell DDR-60 series only shows a typical rating but says nothing about the efficiency at idle. From AC/DC converters I'm used to have a curve that starts at idle and maybe 70% and goes to 100% load, having the peak at ninetee something.

So I guess I have to contact Meanwell and ask why the linked Datasheet is not showing that curve. Thanks for the answer.
