Largest file listed first : find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 du | sort -nr | head -10 | cut -f2 | xargs -I{} du -sh {} (i.e. use sort -nr | head -10 instead of sort -n | tail -10)

first du -s was breaking biggest dir results. Guessing du was updated recently on Ubuntu. Removed -s from first du for both and works again. Combined results do not work, so removed that text.
