yes, that is what I am after.  Two observations:

One inconvenience of this is that I assume it will always be necessary to  
have the next sample before inserting the current sample (so the end of  
the run can be specified), though this is not clear to me from the  
documentation (do I call inserter(42,0) or inserter(42,0,9)?).

And as an inefficiency, each timestamp gets stored twice (again, if I  
understand correctly).
