Now you can create indexes on multiple columns w/o having to actually store the data.

That is correct.
The best indexes have no duplicates.

would i be right in assuming if you index a column, the less duplicates it has the faster the index will make searches using that column?
 
goin off a hunch, thanks for any info!
