Time efficient Partial Inverted Index building

I need to build a partial Inverted Index. Something like: l = {{x, {h, a, b, c}}, {y, {c, d, e}}} iI[l]

I need to build a partial Inverted Index. Something like:

l = {{x, {h, a, b, c}}, {y, {c, d, e}}}
iI[l]
(*
-> {{a, {x}}, {b, {x}}, {c, {x, y}}, {d, {y}}, {e, {y}}, {h, {x}}}
*)

I think it is pretty clear what it does. In the input list, the {x, y ...} are unique, while the {a, b, c, ..} are not. The output ought to be ordered by #[[1]].

Right now, I am doing this:

iI[list_List] := {#, list[[Position开发者_StackOverflow中文版[list, #][[All, 1]]]][[All, 1]]} & /@ 
                     (Union@Flatten@Last@Transpose@list)

But it looks too convoluted for such an easy task, seems too slow, and I should be able to cope with Legion.

A test drive to compare your results:

words = DictionaryLookup[];
abWords = DictionaryLookup["ab" ~~ ___];
l = {#, RandomChoice[abWords, RandomInteger[{1, 30}]]} & /@ words[[1 ;; 3000]];
First@Timing@iI[l]
(*
-> 5.312
*)

So, any ideas for an speedup?


Seems a classic task for Reap-Sow (improvement in the final version due to @Heike):

iI[list_] := Sort[Reap[Sow @@@ list, _, List][[2]]] 

Then,

iI[l]

{{a, {x}}, {b, {x}}, {c, {x, y}}, {d, {y}}, {e, {y}}, {h, {x}}}

and

In[22]:= 
words=DictionaryLookup[];
abWords=DictionaryLookup["ab"~~___];
l={#,RandomChoice[abWords,RandomInteger[{1,30}]]}&/@words[[1;;3000]];
First@Timing@iI[l]
Out[25]= 0.047

EDIT

Here is an alternative version with a similar (slightly worse) performance:

iIAlt[list_] :=
   Sort@Transpose[{#[[All, 1, 2]], #[[All, All, 1]]}] &@
           GatherBy[Flatten[Thread /@ list, 1], Last];

It is interesting that Reap - Sow here gives an even slightly faster solution than the one based on structural operations.

EDIT 2

Just for an illustration - for those who prefer rule-based solutions, here is one based on a combination of Dispatch and ReplaceList:

iIAlt1[list_] :=
   With[{disp = Dispatch@Flatten[Thread[Rule[#2, #]] & @@@ list]},
       Map[{#, ReplaceList[#, disp]} &, Union @@ list[[All, 2]]]]

It is about 2-3 times slower than the other two, though.
