Let me illustrate my problem a bit more.

There is an index with 1.2M books in it. Every book has category field 
and every book can be currently in stock, which is stored in stock 
field. Now, I generally expect to have 50-60% of books to be stocked. So 
it leaves me with 600,000 books I would need to iterate to find out what 
categories are currently stocked.

It sounds like borderline task where one would think a database would be 
more appropriate, but ability to do advanced search over this collection 
of books is a top priority and database would not provide that.
