I'd recommend both, keepass supports that. Keepass supports using a secure desktop to prevent keyloggers[1], but you never know with some of the usb keyboard exploits[2], and good old fashioned looking over your shoulder. While keepass has protection against dictionary attacks[3], why not use a keyfile? you can put it on a flash drive, and now noone can access your passwords without that usb key. (obviously make sure you have multiple copies of your keyfile :)

>why not use a keyfile?

Because you're always just one burglary away from passwordocalypse?
