   > Thanks [@2010YOUY01](https://github.com/2010YOUY01) for the context! This 
issue is specifically about the case after SortExec is eliminated via sort 
pushdown ([#21182](https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/21182)). When sort 
elimination removes SortExec entirely, there is no Stage 1 merge. SPM becomes 
the only merge operator, reading directly from I/O-bound DataSourceExec 
partitions.

   > In that scenario, a parallel merge within SPM itself (splitting N input 
streams into groups and merging in parallel) could help. The DuckDB parallel 
k-way merge link is great — thanks for sharing!
   
   Ah, I see — that's a good optimization opportunity.
   
   Would you mind if I work on this, if you haven’t started on it yet? I’ve 
been thinking about improving the merge strategy similarly.
