By module do you mean directory (Modules, Lib, Python, etc) or do you mean individual files?

I mean one patch == the fewest number of files that must be changed simultaneously. This may vary from one (likely most common) to dozens (likely very uncommon), depending on the specific changes involved. I expect most "memory leak" fixes don't require coordinated changes across multiple files, and are better handled by one-file patches when that's possible.
