When if an FFT more efficient than Goertzel?

Let's say I have a sample block of M samples and I want to figure out which frequencies are present in the sample block.

Let's say I want to run a frequency analysis that returns the power of N equally spaced frequencies.

At which N is it more efficient to use an FFT than Goertzel to calculate the power of said N frequencies based on M time-domain samples?
