As a consequence, even the efficiency of such microscopic machines becomes a fluctuating random variable. Using geometric properties and the fluctuation theorem for the total entropy production, a `universal theory of efficiency fluctuations' at long times, for machines with a finite state space, was developed in [Verley \\textit{et al.}, Nat.~Commun.~\\textbf{5}, 4721 (2014); Phys.~Rev.~E~\\textbf{90}, 052145 (2014)]. We extend this theory to machines with an arbitrary state space.
