If keys are made on each column in a table, accessing any column in some functions like filtering should be faster.

I read about ORC documentation on Hive website, but still curious of some things. I know ORC format is faster on filtering or reading because it has indexing. Has it advantage of joining two tables of ORC dataset as well? Could you explain about it in detail? When experimenting, it seems like it has some advantages of joining in some aspect, but not quite sure what characteristic of ORC make this happening rather than CSV.
