neither of them are efficient. its + 6 faction per turn in, ry gorr messenger spawns every 5 minutes, that doesnt count the time to actually run back and forth from messenger spawn point, turn in quest after defeating the quest NPC (without fail mind you). Someone who is max KoS would have to do this countless times to get non KoS: Most efficient way is helmet turn-ins even if you have to farm them... with a 50 faction hit per 4 turn in.

The math for the Ry Gorr messenger proposed faction system: 217 turn ins for KoS faction to reach non kos faction(just using these figures as an example, doesnt really matter what your faction is) thats 1300 faction points from Max KoS to Dubiously divided by 6 (faction gained per turn in). Who in their right mind would want to do that? Lets say it even takes 5 minutes for each turn in (which it doesnt) that would take 1085 minutes or a bit over 18 hours if you could turn it in every 5 minutes (ry gorr messenger respawn time) but that should be atleast DOUBLED if not tripled, quadrupled, due to travel time, time to complete quest (kill quest NPC). This isnt even worth arguing over...

Wait for KT, wait for folks to kill some of the nameds in throne room, or farm/buy some helms and attempt the proposed strategy at the top of this page for dain faction...
