Emacs doesn't handle large files very well in my experience (particularly if
they're not read in as binary in fundamental mode), so I've added this
warning in case you open a very large file without intending to.

I guess the warning should not happen for files opened with
find-file-literally (presumably nnfolder doesn't just use
`find-file-noselect').
