How to get the size of raw device files

Is there a way to get the exact file size of a character special file in a Oracle Database ?

  1. I can't query the information from Oracle because Oracle isn't running.
  2. The processing of "dd if=.. of=.. bs=.." takes too long using small blocksizes.

Thanks
Michael
