Comment (by dd32):

 re-ran the script with every plugin with more than 1,000 installs.
 I should also note, that these number and the above comment only refer to
 assets in the `/assets/` directory, it ignores screenshots in the plugin
 folder.

 {{{
 asset_type      count   avg     max_size
 screenshot-*    21,905  222KB   109,096KB
 banner-772x250   5,470   91KB     3,024KB
 icon-128x128     4,501   17KB     1,274KB
 icon-256x256     3,830   34KB     2,283KB
 banner-1544x500  2,678  219KB     6,079KB
 icon.svg           539   30KB     4,520KB
 }}}

 With the above mentioned limits, the affected asset counts are..
 Screenshots: 151 (>2MB)
 Banners: 70 / 8 (>1/2MB)
 Icons: 55 (>512KB) (Of which 25 are currently >1MB)

 Again, 15 plugins had >20MB of assets, ~60 >10MB
