Have you looked at the ltree extension for postgres? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/ltree.html

It's quite fast.

No, looks cool though. That would impact deployability to heroku though, yes?

It's on their list of approved extensions https://postgres.heroku.com/blog/past/2012/8/2/announcing_su...

You should be able to say:

    CREATE EXTENSION ltree;

In the database you want it in.
