 So, all paved for using `getUrlArray`, isn't it?

 `TorperfFilesLines` was that we didn't parse a directory listing, so we
 had to know which file sizes exist.  But here we do know which file sizes
 are measured, so the only reason for specifying those would be to exclude
 sizes we don't recognize.  Do we have to do that?  I'd say as long as the
 file sizes stated in the .tpf file name matches the `FILESIZE` value
 contained in that file, we'll take what we get.

 I think it's fine, to reduce the configuration.
 The verification of filename vs. FILESIZE value should be done by
 descriptor, if we feel the need to introduce it.
