---------------------------------------------
Maybe it could use some explanation of what those number means? I had no clue
whatsoever before looking at the source.

> we already log some details about compactions but it would be useful to know
> how many rows were merged (resulting in "useful" work) and how many were
> unique (representing "wasted work").
> the simple approach requires two additional counters (one for unique rows,
> one for merged rows). As the merge join is progressing if two or more rows
> are combined, tick the joined counter. If a row is simply copied tick the
> unique counter.
> a more complete solution would be to keep a separate count for each number of
> merges. This would require number_of_files_being_merged counters. If no
> rows were merged, tick counters[0], if two rows were merged tick counters[1]
> and so on
