Highway question

To get the best efficiency on the highway, do you maintain a constant throttle position (as light as possible to maintain speed), or do you take your foot off the pedal and do short little bursts of throttle (slowing to 57mph, then going back to 60 or 61, then back to 57, etc) ? I have tried both techniques but am not sure which one is better as I don't have a scangauge.
