We are trying to get something faster than ~ '%foo%';
Which Tsearch2 does not give us :)

Hmm, why not with GIN? :) Although, right now GIN doesn't support prefix search, it's possible to use it.

Brain storm method:

Develop a dictionary which returns all substring for lexeme, for example for word foobar it will be 'foobar fooba foob foo fo oobar ooba oob oo obar oba ob bar ba ar'. And make GIN functional index over your column (to save disk space).
So, your query will be looked as
select ... where to_tsvector(text_column) @@ 'foo';
Notices:
Time of search in GIN weak depend on number of words (opposite to tsearch2/GiST), but insertion of row may be slow enough....
