At times I have thse Oracle logfiles that grow like crazy and fill up a specific file system. I wanted to write a find command that lists which are the biggest files from the search path..so
/qbidora02/oracledba/find . -name ....... <downward to the lowest level> and list file names, sizes and time stamp. any ideas?
thanks

"Oracle logfiles that grow like crazy ......."
Yo!
Your DBA should know where the log files are/will be created....
there should be no finding.....
.......if not there is an issue!!!! 
Now here is the command to find the files that end in "log"
and their listing!!!
find . \( -name "*log" \) -ls;
Happy finding!!

Try this.....
find . -type f -name "*log" -ls | sort -rn +6;
This will also sort the results in filesize (descending). And will only include plain files (rather than including directories also).
Can filter further with things such as -user and a number of others....for more detail see the man page for find.
