$ cd /usr/share/emacs
$ find . -name warning\* -print
./lisp/emacs-lisp/warnings.el.gz
./lisp/emacs-lisp/warnings.elc

That said, there's no need to be directly modifying the emacs source.
Use the Emacs Customization feature, go to  Emacs => Files = Large File
Warning Threshold  and change the value to something you're comfortable
with.
