> Currently, the merge of inverted index is implemented by a full range scan, i.e., token+key pairs are generated and fed into a priority queue to obtain a global ordering. However, it is typical that a token can correspond to tens or hundreds (or even much more) keys. As a result, comparisons of tokens are wasted because for many times tokens would be the same. To improve this, we can have two priority queues, one for tokens and one for keys. For each token, we merge their inverted lists using the key priority queue. After that, we fetch the next token from the token queue, and merge their inverted lists again.
