WD mass distributions for different fractions of mass growth during nova cycles, i.e. assuming that more mass is accreted between two nova outbursts than is expelled during the eruption. The fractions are normalized to the total formation probability of all the CVs in each model. A higher accretion efficiency shifts the peak at 0.8 M⊙ to higher masses.
