A system plugin and admin module by Regular Labs: clear the Joomla cache with one click from any backend page, along with the tmp folder, server cache and CDN cache.
Cache Cleaner by Regular Labs saves trips to the core cache management screen. A link appears in the administrator panel, and clicking it clears the cache in the background via AJAX without reloading the current page. This is handy during development, after template changes and on sites that use page caching.
