I believe your script above has issues:

• Why did you chop $size? You are only taking off the last digit. If you meant to take off the metric notation (G, M, or k) you could just s/G|M|k//o
• STRICT and WARNINGS!
• You have have a percentage multiplied by 1000. I believe you meant 100.
• If you want the metric notations (G,M, or k), you will have to do some funny math to get them all to the same measurement (kilobytes).
