initializers/rack-attack.rb
class Rack::Attack
throttle('logins/ip', :limit => 5, :period => 60.seconds) do |req|
if req.path == '/login' && req.post?
Rails.logger.error("Rack::Attack Too many login attempts from IP: #{req.ip}")
req.ip

make sure you configure cache.store in your initializers/rack-attack.rb file you can configure it like that:
class Rack::Attack
...
cache.store = ActiveSupport::Cache::MemoryStore.new
...
end
You may need enable the cache in your development environment
please set config.cache_classes = true in config/environments/development.rb.
