Everything that is common to every page of your site should be on a single file, since it will be loaded only once by the browser.
Code specific for a single (or maybe 2) page(s) should go on separate files, loaded only by the pages that need them.
That’s the way I do it: you use the browser’s cache to reduce your bandwidth and to accelerate the loading and rendering of the page.
