An old thread: The latest issue of the Anesthesia Patient Safety
Foundation, listed on the WEB as (appropriately) the Sprint issue is focused
on Fatigue and the Practice of Anesthesiology.

Unfortunately they did not post the article on Performance-Enhancing Drugs.
Provigil (modafinil) is included in the discussion.
www.provigil.com
There is a quote from a DARPA website that, "Sleep deprivation is a fact of
modern combat. Current operations depend on a warfighter's ability to
function for extended periods of time without adequate sleep".
The article concludes, "For performance-enhancing drugs, presently there is
no rational code, but there is a clear coda: the genie is out of the
bottle."
A later article is titled: "Cure for the Dopey Doc?"
So, would you dislike losing to someone on a relatively harmless boost.
Would you dislike missing a rare DX because he took a nap rather than
hanging on for "a few more"?
