I'm fairly sure the Rushmore technology, once-and-perhaps-still trademarked
and patent-pending, was built with the ability to take multiple index
bitmaps built from the original B+ trees and merge those values to optimize
the records that were ultimately read into the result set. In the end, I
think it was this technology (and the couple of really, really smart guys
who wrote the code) that resulted in Microsoft purchasing Fox Software and
in the coming years introduce similar technologies into the Access engine,
ODBC and SQL Server.

Hence MS's motivation at hiring the coders and taking out a competitor with
the "merger"
