Highly unlikely. Heroku is a read-only filesystem, so any files you
upload have to be stored elsewhere, like S3 or similar. Any process
that is going to scan the files needs to access them as a stream, and
that''s best done on the same hardware or near enough (like EC2) for
performance reasons. I''m also fairly certain that you can''t
install
random binaries on Heroku, they have it locked down pretty tight there.
