  Original paper: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3093247/ http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3093247/ "These effects were specific to episodic learning, with no between-session change expressed in procedural motor-skill learning, or in measures of alertness or reaction time" The memory relevant for developers is mostly procedural, i.e conceptual memory, i believe. So napping might not be useful(or further research needed).

    I'd guess that episodic learning is part of building conceptual memory?
