Hm. If you must do that, remember Postgres is guilt-free-SQL, so don't use a varchar, use the array type.

I like that you guys pointed out more efficient ways to do stupid things :)

Well, if the time it takes you to contort your application to work around our row limits is worth less to you than $9/mo, you're probably in need of both technical and financial advice.

I don't disagree nor do I use heroku, it's moot for myself.

I was just commenting how row-limitations were a very NoSQL way of enforcing data limits and inappropriate for an RDBMS.

Oh, you don't need to use Heroku to take advantage of Heroku Postgres -- it's available as a standalone service.
