This is a 22 KB sample XLS file — exactly 22,016 bytes, generated by us rather than scraped, so the size is deliberate and the contents are free of anyone else's copyright. 100 rows (100 rows). Use it to test an upload limit near 22 KB, to time a transfer, or as a fixture whose hash never changes.

Sizes here are decimal: 22 KB means 22,016 bytes, not 0.02 MiB. If your limit is expressed in binary units, check the exact byte count above before assuming this file is under it.

Frequently asked questions

How big is this XLS file exactly?

What can I test with a 22 KB XLS file?

Upload size limits that sit near 22 KB, transfer timing, storage quotas, and any pipeline that behaves differently above or below a size threshold. Pick the file just under and just over your limit to find out whether the limit is inclusive.
