    Run the `@benchmark ...` commands multiple times to see whether there are any significant fluctuations.
+   Note that the elixir name has changed since
+   [PR #256](https://github.com/trixi-framework/Trixi.jl/pull/256).
+   Nowadays, the relevant elixir is

 Follow these steps for both commits you want to compare. The relevant benchmark results you should typically be looking at
 are the median and mean values of the runtime and the memory/allocs estimate. In this example, the differences
