Ordering a query result set by an arbitrary list in PostgreSQL

I'm hunting for the best solution on how to handle keeping large sets of DB records "sorted" in a performant manner.

Problem Description

Most of us have work on projects at some point where we have needed to have ordered lists of objects. Whether it be a to-do list sorted by priority, or a list of documents that a user can sort in whatever order they want.

A traditional approach for this on a Rails project is to use something like the acts_as_list gem, or something similar. These systems typically add some sort of "postion" or "sort order" column to each record, which is then used when querying out the records in a traditional order by position SQL query.

This approach seems to work fine for smaller datasets, but can be hard to manage on large data sets with hundreds (or thousands) of records needing to be sorted. Changing the sort position of even a single object will require updating every single record in the database that is in the same sort group. This requires potentially thousands of wri

This is a proof-of-concept of a couple of concurrent data structures written in Ruby.

The implementations are heavily commented for those interested. There are benchmarks (with results) included below. The results are interesting, but, as always, take with a grain of salt.

Data structures

AtomicLinkedQueue is a lock-free queue, built on atomic CAS operations.

Programmatically list all routes (/paths) from within a rails app.
class RouteRecognizer
attr_reader :paths
# To use this inside your app, call:
# `RouteRecognizer.new.initial_path_segments`
# This returns an array, e.g.: ['assets','blog','team','faq','users']
INITIAL_SEGMENT_REGEX = %r{^\/([^\/\(:]+)}

Our box is freshly hatched, virgin pixels at the prompt. I favor Ubuntu; if you use another version of linux, your commands may vary. Five minutes to go:
passwd
Change the root password to something long and complex. You won’t need to remember it, just store it somewhere secure - this password will only be needed if you lose the ability to log in over ssh or lose your sudo password.
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

# This module is a starter Ruby client for your REST API, based on Faraday:

#
# It supports HTTP basic authentication, sending and recieving JSON, and simple error reporting.
# I use this as a basis for building API clients in most of my Ruby projects.

# Use it like this:

# http = GenericApi.connect('http://localhost:3000/', 'myname', 'secret')
