It was shown by Littell and Folks [3] that Fisher's method of combining independent tests is asymptotically optimal among four commonly used methods of combining, according to Bahadur relative efficiency. The result of the present article is that Fisher's method is asymptotically optimal among essentially all methods of combining independent tests.
