hmmm.. I found research in this area very lacking. The only scientific study seemed to be from sleep researcher Claudio Stampi and his essentially said "If you absolutely can't keep regular sleeping schedules (like in long sailing races) then polyphasic sleep is a better alternative".

If you have pointers to papers I'd appreciate links sent to the email-id in my profile. I might try this again someday.

The only good research I've been able to find is contained in the book "Why We Nap" by Stampi and Broughton. Sounds like we're talking about the same source. Unfortunately, its no longer in print so therefore very very hard to find..

I'll shoot you an email if I find more.. My co-founder knows more about this stuff than me I'll ask him.
