I worked part-time (3 days per week and the 2.5 per week) as a developer for 7 or 8 years and found that you had to be as ruthless as you could get away with with 2. I deliberately worked Fridays as it was often quiet and easy to get lots of work done. It worked pretty well but I don't think it would have worked for all projects. Stuff without too much communications overhead was better. I was full-time first and requested part-time by which time I had proved myself, knew the systems etc.
