> - The name 'TestTooManyEntries' does not clearly convey the purpose of the test. What is tested is the validation that the total CEN size fits in a Java byte array. Suggested rename: CenSizeTooLarge
> - The test creates DEFLATED entries which incurs zlib costs and File Data / Data Descriptors for no additional benefit. We can use STORED instead.
> - By creating a single LocalDateTime and setting it with `ZipEntry.setTimeLocal`, we can avoid repeated time zone calculations. 
> - The name of entries is generated by calling UUID.randomUUID, we could use simple counter instead.
> - The produced file is unnecessarily large. We know how large a CEN entry is, let's take advantage of that to create a file with the minimal size.
> - By adding a maximally large extra field to the CEN entries, we get away with fewer CEN records and save memory
> - The summary and comments of the test can be improved to help explain the purpose of the test and how we reach the limit being tested.
