one file.
Although I think you're right about having smaller modules, I
generally find it easier to browse through a larger file than
many smaller files.
Multiple files is ok if you know what you're looking for (grep)
but when you're just trying to scan across a system to get a feel
for how it's working, juggling many files is a real pita.
