 Antifreese has less heat transfer capacity (about 50% less) than pure water.  So the lower percentage of antifreeze you go, the better cooling you will get.  Don't go below about 75% water and some experts recommend 60% water as the lower limit.
(ref. CAR & DRIVER magazine, 7/02)

  I thought more antifreeze = less temp..

  I would like to know more about this 20-30% mix for summer use.
