Measures reported by LargeFileTest

Some systems in a target environment could be hosting files of large sizes; a few of these files might not be of any use to either the user or the system (eg., *.tmp). In order to locate these files and remove them so as to conserve disk space, the LargeFileTest comes in handy. This test reveals the number of files in a specific directory that are of or above a configured size. If such large-sized files exist, then the detailed diagnosis of this test, when enabled, provides the names of the large files and their respective sizes. The measures made by this test are as follows:
