We compare 13 different a posteriori error estimators for the Poisson problem with lowest-order finite element discretization. Residual-based error estimators compete with a wide range of averaging estimators and estimators based on local problems. Among our five benchmark problems we also look on two examples with discontinuous isotropic diffusion and their impact on the performance of the estimators. (Supported by DFG Research Center MATHEON.)
