Under normal usage is what I meant, so for the average user. If you're just pushing the Octa and using only the A15 then yes, more power requires more juice. I didn't have the 9500 for very long, but comparatively it was better than my AT&T version by a slight margin.
What's really not known is the threshold of when the high power side gets spun up. Best guess has been around the 1 watt mark, but that doesn't help us much since we as users don't really know what apps will be that demanding outside of games.
Navigation, streaming video (YouTube, Netflix, etc), and recording videos would be a few I would guess push the device relatively hard.
