Where do you mean? A call to substring() shares the byte array of the 
original string, so there is no extra array.  Also I don't think it
is stored anywhere as the sort key is a new array.

We just do not need the MultiSortKey when the partialName is the same as 
the name so we can eliminate using the partialName
altogether.

As in attached patch (warning: untested).
