Is there a way to check the size of the Rails cache?
Something in the vein of: Rails.cache.size => 390 MB
I assume there's some slight variation between data stores, but right now I'm not sure how to even start to check the disk space a cache is taking up.

Rails (as of 2.1) provides different stores for the cached data created by action and fragment caches. Page caches are always stored on disk. Rails 2.1 and above provide ActiveSupport::Cache::Store which can be used to cache strings.
1.1 Page Caching Page caching is a Rails mechanism which allows the request for a generated page to be fulfilled by the web server (i.e. Apache or NGINX) without having to go through the entire Rails stack. While this is super fast it can't be applied to every situation (such as pages that need authentication).
cache. clear will clear your app cache. In that case rake tmp:cache:clear will just try to remove files from "#{Rails.
To use Redis as a Rails cache store, use a dedicated cache instance that's set up as an LRU (Last Recently Used) cache instead of pointing the store at your existing Redis server, to make sure entries are dropped from the store when it reaches its maximum size.
that totally depends on your cache store and the backend you use.
this is an example from my heroku instance running memcachier:
Rails.cache.stats
# => {"xxx.memcachier.com:11211"=>{"curr_items"=>"278", "bytes"=>"3423104", "evictions"=>"0", "total_items"=>"7373", "curr_connections"=>"7", "total_connections"=>"97", "cmd_get"=>"141674", "cmd_set"=>"7373", "cmd_delete"=>"350", "cmd_flush"=>"6", "get_hits"=>"63716", "get_misses"=>"77958", "delete_hits"=>"162", "delete_misses"=>"188", "incr_hits"=>"0", "incr_misses"=>"0", "decr_hits"=>"0", "decr_misses"=>"0"}}
FileStore does not have such a method:
Rails.cache.stats
# => NoMethodError: undefined method `stats' for #<ActiveSupport::Cache::FileStore:0x007ff1cbe905b0>
And when running a memcached locally, i get a different result set:
Rails.cache.stats
# => {"127.0.0.1:11211"=>{"pid"=>"327", "uptime"=>"517931", "time"=>"1392163858", "version"=>"1.4.16", "libevent"=>"2.0.21-stable", "pointer_size"=>"64", "rusage_user"=>"2.257386", "rusage_system"=>"4.345445", "curr_connections"=>"15", "total_connections"=>"16", "connection_structures"=>"16", "reserved_fds"=>"20", "cmd_get"=>"0", "cmd_set"=>"0", "cmd_flush"=>"0", "cmd_touch"=>"0", "get_hits"=>"0", "get_misses"=>"0", "delete_misses"=>"0", "delete_hits"=>"0", "incr_misses"=>"0", "incr_hits"=>"0", "decr_misses"=>"0", "decr_hits"=>"0", "cas_misses"=>"0", "cas_hits"=>"0", "cas_badval"=>"0", "touch_hits"=>"0", "touch_misses"=>"0", "auth_cmds"=>"0", "auth_errors"=>"0", "bytes_read"=>"48", "bytes_written"=>"30", "limit_maxbytes"=>"67108864", "accepting_conns"=>"1", "listen_disabled_num"=>"0", "threads"=>"4", "conn_yields"=>"0", "hash_power_level"=>"16", "hash_bytes"=>"524288", "hash_is_expanding"=>"0", "malloc_fails"=>"0", "bytes"=>"0", "curr_items"=>"0", "total_items"=>"0", "expired_unfetched"=>"0", "evicted_unfetched"=>"0", "evictions"=>"0", "reclaimed"=>"0"}}
