Melinda reported early on that INSET is indeed cheaper than SPECs, but
once you for some reason have SPECs, it is cheaper to roll INSERT &c
into it. The dispatcher overhead of a new stage outweighs the marginal
cost of a specification item.

The reason for INSERT is that it is a much simpler stage than SPECS, hence
it performs better. Not important for a very small PIPE.

Thanks Mike/Kris,
I was reading about INSERT in the User Reference and read that everything
in INSERT could be done with SPECS.
So, I knew I was missing something.
Thanks to your help I was able to complete the records.!
Thank you again :)
