My team uses this pattern and generally speaking it looks something like this

* everybody is good at breaking down code into changes small enough review quickly but not small enough to become tedious and trivial

* people work on CRs whenever they have time. They do generally not post them after people have started going offline, and wait til next morning as a courtesy, since there is no difference between publishing for review at 5pm vs 9am the next day

One side effect of this workflow is that because the pieces are more manageable, less uninterrupted “flow” time is required to complete a bunch of small things than to make one really big change. And others digest the smaller changes easier and knowledge spreads more effectively. And with the time its easy to say “don’t make people review outside working hours.”
