remove_unused_levels is very slow · Issue #16556 · pandas-dev/pandas · GitHub

Code Sample
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
series = pd.DataFrame(dict(
    A=np.random.randint(0, 10000, 100000),
    B=np.random.randint(0, 10000, 100000),
    V=np.random.rand(100000))).groupby(['A', 'B']).V.sum()
filtered_series = series[series < 0.1]
%time x = filtered_series.index.remove_unused_levels()
%time y = filtered_series.reset_index().set_index(['A', 'B']).index
Problem description

On my laptop, x takes 20 to 40 times as long as y, despite y doing the extra work of sorting the second level and reindexing the series in the process. The outputs, except for the sorting of the second level, are identical. Why is remove_unused_levels so slow?

Expected Output

remove_unused_levels should be at least as fast on large indexes as the reset_index/set_index hack.
