As one who at times buys potatoes from Costco as well as buys from local supermarkets I am not quite sure of what is meant by "large potato" or "medium" potato in recipes. Is there a convention by weight as to potato size when referred to in recipes?

If a recipe calls for, say, 6 large potatoes, do they mean "Costco sized" potatoes, and if not then how many of the Costco monsters wold this translate to? For a recipe to work one needs accurate or somewhat accurate proportions. I wish at times one would simply say "3 pounds of potatoes".
