Agreed, I just turned down an online coding interview as it required 3 hours dedicated time, especially for those of us with families 3 hours at home is precious and not usual uninterruptible. Companies who set tasks like this probably aren't the sort of company you want to work for.
Prior to having a family, I'd spend 12 hours on a test but claim it was only 6, now I'd be pushed to spend 3.
