If your reason for doing the split is not processing time, then I would suggest you use a single top-level file to include your per-year files and avoid the explicit "closing" of each year; Beancount can do this for you at reporting time. Some people on this list split their files; I've coded this up but I've never used it myself (other than unit tests). Note that all the options and plugins must appear in the top-level file.
