Yeah, I don't think you can even deploy that large an app (with those
videos embedded) to heroku.

Move them to an external service like Amazon S3. It may take a little
work up front, but in return

1) You'll be able to use heroku
2) On any platform, deployment will be *much* faster
3) You'll probably find performance improves (my experience w/
moving some large product images to S3)

HTH!
