I think it depends a lot on the company. There are a few different outlooks here.
I know of some drivers whose companies aren't big on restarts. Theoretically, a truck sitting for 34 hours isn't generating revenue, so keeping it moving makes sense. You pick up hours every midnight, and run off of those, maybe not moving in fast forward, but you are making progress everyday. It also keeps you under freight more often. As long as the freight the company runs isn't that hot, it works out well.
On the other hand, I used to work for a company that got me home every weekend. We would pretty much run 11 on, 10 off (not counting "not driving" time) all week, bleed the log book for every available hour, then go home on Friday night or Saturady morning. Start fresh on Monday with a new 70. running hot freight in a 7-800 mile range, this worked beautifully.
Ultimately, it's a matter of do they want to run more steady, or run hot then shut down. It all depends on the company attitude, and I'm sure things like type of freight, length of haul, even number of trucks available. It's all a complex mathematical equation with no two people using the same calculator
