      > db.coll1.insert({a:1, b:2})
      ...
      > db.coll1.createIndex({a:1, b:1})
      ...
      > db.coll1.explain().aggregate({$group: {_id: ["$a", "$b"]}})
      ... "inputStage" : { "stage" : "COLLSCAN" ...
      

      The aggregation on a single key generates efficient DISTINCT_SCAN:

      > db.coll1.explain().aggregate({$group: {_id: "$a"}})
      ... "inputStage" : { "stage" : "DISTINCT_SCAN", ...
