Issue:
File size warnings
# User story
As as user I want to get a warning if my metadata file sizes exceed some unreasonably large amount (Jon/Helen/Dan decided on 500KB as an initial limit).

# Acceptance criteria
- [x] Check as part of `write_standard_file` and throw warning as needed

# Sprint Ready Checklist 
- [ ] 1. Acceptance criteria defined 
- [ ] 2. Team understands acceptance criteria 
- [ ] 3. Team has defined solution / steps to satisfy acceptance criteria 
- [ ] 4. Acceptance criteria is verifiable / testable 
- [ ] 5. External / 3rd Party dependencies identified
- [ ] 6. Ticket is prioritized and sized
