My first reaction was to say that "follow the sun" (this is the actual term used in interviews as far as I can tell) can't really improve production throughput any more than having multiple studios in the same country. But when you think about it having playtesters on an opposite timezone is pretty useful. And I'm sure you can set up some other sequential pipelines as well. I imagine it only works when the process is very streamlined though.
