I was looking at my app's disk usage today and noticed that my vendored version of devise 2.0.0 was using over **13 megabytes** of disk space!

Digging in, I discovered:

test/rails_app/log/test.log

is the culprit.

Doing a fresh gem install into an empty gemset confirmed it.

This file doesn't appear in the git repo, so it's probably getting generated as part of the gem build process prior to hosting on rubygems.org.
