Question

im trying to find the largest files created or modified within the last 10 days within Linux.

I wanted to find all files which exceed 100MB in size but were created in the last 10 days.

Almost along the lines of the below

find / -type f -size +100000k -exec ls -lShr {}; | awk '{ print $9 ": " $5 }' | sort -k 5 -r -h

-mtime -10 -ls

Answer 1

You can use -printf of GNU find :

find / -size +100M -mtime -10 -printf '%s\t%p\n' | sort -n
