[COMMUNICATED]
Three kedoshei elyon had one common concept when it came to learning Torah – they were the Ohr Hachaim Hakadosh (Rabbi Chaim ibn Attar 1696-1743) when he came to Eretz Yisroel; the Ramchal (Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto 1707-1746) when he lived in Padua, Italy; and Hagaon, Harav Chaim Volozhiner, (1749-1821) the famous talmid of the Gaon of Vilna.
They each had a yeshiva with ‘around-the-clock’ Torah learning, 24-hours a day, so that there would be no minute when the sound of Torah learning would not be heard in this world. The 24-hour period would be divided into shifts, and as one ended the next would begin.

“‘around-the-clock’ Torah learning, 24-hours a day, so that there would be no minute when the sound of Torah learning would not be heard in this world”
Whereas in the times of Ohr Hachaim, Ramchal, and Nefesh Hachaim, few Yidden lived in Eretz Yisroel, now, boruch Hashem, that is not the case anymore.
Nowadays there are Yidden around the world, in different time zones, that B”H already learn Torah in different parts of the day. For example, the time difference between Eretz Yisroel and the USA is seven hours, so that when late night learners in the USA go to sleep, early morning learners in Eretz Yisroel are already awake.
