And as for efficiency, it is a LINEAR REG, to a first order (Vin - Vout) * Iout, maybe plus 10% if your devices have really low beta.
For me, I would never try to find a higher power device in that class, parallel devices with small current sharing resistors is a much better way to go (Thermally, and in terms of effective SOA), but then I probably would not be trying a linear reg at that current level anyway.
