My personal break-up point is at about 500 lines (including about 30-40% of comments and whitespace).Not a hard rule, but I like strict encapsulation with as few inter-module connections as possible. -- Enrico

I don’t worry so much about the line count more where the “natural” boundaries of a functional module live. I’ve had modules that have quite a few thousand lines but present a nice compact clean interface, and others that are only a few dozen lines.
Ah, yes, I don't use a line counter :-)I meant that when I see a file becoming too large it is usually a good indicator that I could gain in clarity and robustness by restructuring or grouping functions by type into modules or sub-modules.
This of course applies to my way of working and it is not a fixed rule. -- Enrico
