"“As a Cravath associate in the 1980s for nearly 10 years, my ‘low’ was 2,500 hours and my ‘high’ was 3,500. During one nine-month stretch on takeover litigation as the lead associate, I averaged 90 hours a week, and at the end of it worked for 56 hours straight without a break or any sleep, to meet a filing deadline (made by chartering a helicopter to get the papers to court on time). I wouldn’t trade those years for anything. It was the best work possible for a young lawyer, at the best law firm on earth.”"

They weren't working that many hours in the 80s. Cravath PPP was only about 700k in 1986 or 1.6 million in today's dollars. They were working far less than now (in addition to lower billing rates and less leverage).
