You can run a command from the DB console to get the size of the database.

Here's an example for postgres:

SELECT pg_size_pretty( pg_database_size('jira') );

Alternatively, the Jira System info page will tell you the db name and location.

(System -> System Info)

From here you log in to the database server and run a command to see the database size.
