Steady, long-term work is most productive at about 40hrs / week. However,
unproductivity due to buggy organisation (i.e. wasted work) *can* be made up
by bruteforcing longer hours. In addition, short bursts of longer hours can
get more stuff done (and even achieve higher productivity per hour) without
losing quality, _if_ the people are motivated and believe in the
appropriateness or neccesity of the increased production speed. ("Motivated"
as in "Not Dilbert-style")

Planning for periods of longer hours is a long-term disaster.
