Merge algorithms generally run in time proportional to the sum of the lengths of the lists ; merge algorithms that operate on large numbers of lists at once will multiply the sum of the lengths of the lists by the time to figure out which of the pointers points to the lowest item, which can be accomplished with a heap-based priority queue in O ( log n ) time, for O ( m log n ) time, where n is the number of lists being merged and m is the sum of the lengths of the lists.

Sometimes k is presented as a constant, which would make radix sort better ( for sufficiently large n ) than the best comparison-based sorting algorithms, which are all O ( n · log ( n )).
