 * action is the call to the compar function, a considerable optimization
 * in the average case can be achieved due to the fact that k, the displaced
 * elememt, is ususally quite small, so it would be preferable to first
 * heapify, always maintaining the invariant that the larger child is copied
 * over its parent's record.
 *
 * Then, starting from the *bottom* of the heap, finding k's correct place,
 * again maintianing the invariant.  As a result of the invariant no element
 * is 'lost' when k is assigned its correct place in the heap.
 *
 * The time savings from this optimization are on the order of 15-20% for the
 * average case. See Knuth, Vol. 3, page 158, problem 18.
