That's a reasonable G.D. answer.
The only problem is that on my system, the default output includes a TID column that is present in only some of the lines, so the size column is 8 for many lines and 7 for the others, so sort doesn't work as expected unless you change lsof's output.
And you probably should "grep ' (deleted)$' unless you want to see files like /home/gordon/.thunderbird/xxxxxxx.default/calendar-data/deleted.sqlite.
Still, I guess I learned one thing.
