When I saw your Subject line I was going to respond, "You can always check more than one box." Then I saw the actual message and decided to just say, "Never mind!"

A friend said his professor said that you can not be productive more than 6 hours – I laughed because I had been productive for considerably more than that. Now I know what his professor was talking about – we get tired as we get older.
My best productive time (for personal goal): 36 hours straight. (No sleep).
My best productive time for employer was 24 + 10 (and a lecture from my doctor).
If you are struggling at 3 hours then you are still young (give it time).

To me it depends to the sun a bit I try to sleep in the dark night and not after the sun rise. At the moment I wakeup at around 4.30 AM and as an stand alone programmer, start the job at 5 AM at home.

You have the entire 24-hour slot covered. Which timezone are you in that has more than this cycle of hours?

If you read my previous comment you can guess what's wrong with that. The problem is not 24 hours of a day, but it's time slices. They divided the day into 3 hour slices.
I want to choose 5-8 AM. So which slice do you recommend?

I am in the office (manager has problems with telecommute) by 6:30am. Get most of my stuff that requires office presence done by 10:30. By then everyone is in and its endless meeting or mentoring of others or social B.S. As for ideas or solutions to a particular problems that came come to me at all hours (even in dreams) I keep a small voice recorder handy.

I honestly thought it would be 9PM - 12AM. 9 AM - 12 PM for me is email, admin, coffee, fighting fires, phone calls, managing and helping everyone else be productive. Once 3PM comes along I'm back in the groove and just getting in the zone.

I mean, I don't have a "most productive time of day". Ideas just hit me at whatever time they chose to, and the speed at which development is moving really depends on what kind of thing i am doing at the moment, how interested I am in it, etc.
A strange question really, this one. I can't possibly imagine how a certain time of day may be more productive to you, unless you have one of them jobs in which you simply sit there and do a very, VERY similar kind of work every day, but then in that case, you shouldn't have that kind of job anyway.

For me, I'm admit I can't very productive at a specific time. Mostly about 1-4 PM. It's hard to concentrate at that time. At that time, I'm always want to take a nap. Also, I'm no morning person, so it's hard to concentrate early than 9 AM. But again, it's all depend on how important of my job can be. If there is a tight schedule, I can productive anytime. But not on daily routine.

Im the same... I suck at mornings, mid arfternoon i just want to sleep... by late evening (6pm - 9pm) i am just starting to wake up and then i am alert and work fine.
On the other hand, I can work efectivly at any time if it is urgent enough (and i have had enough coffee )

I agree, and disagree
Ideas hit me too at anytime, although lately I have been finding that most of my "better" ideas seem to come while I am having a shower  but, and here is where I disagree, the actual implementation to completion of a project, as opposed to hacking out the latest ideas I have had, I do find that I am more productive at certain times of the day. Afternoons are lazy, and early mornings are when I sleep, so I find that the most productive times for getting the grind work done, is in the mornings, 9AM-12PM, and evenings after 6PM.
If I have something really cool and new I am working on, the time of day means nothing, but for doing the 20th entry screen for the new system a client wants done, time of day is very important. It's the difference between getting work done, and just staring at the screen
