A quick question: Are you using the agenda? IMO, the number of org files you use doesn't really matter, since the agenda will gather the relevant information from all of them and since you can jump directly from the agenda to the corresponding point in your files. I'd also recommend using org-refile to move things from one file and/or headline to another. Similarly, the agenda search commands make it very easy to find data in your files. As a point of comparison, I have 21 files contributing to my agenda at the moment. You might want to consult the following tips on Worg: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-glossary.php#sec-3.3 http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.php#how-to-organize-org-mode-files Hope this helps.
