checking out latest updated file

hi,
i was wondering if there is a way to find out which file is updated the most recent time in the entire file system.... most probably this would be refering to some LOG file, but i wanna find a way which file was that...
some script should work or what?
can anybody help me out on that.
for example to list the last 20 most updated files. starting from root onwards

thanks indeed
