The high complexity and large number of parameters in PinT methods can easily (and unintentionally) lead to numerical experiments that overestimate the algorithm’s performance. In the tradition of Bailey’s article “Twelve ways to fool the masses when giving performance results on parallel computers”, we discuss and demonstrate pitfalls to avoid when evaluating the performance of PinT methods. Despite being written in a light-hearted tone, this paper is intended to raise awareness that there are many ways to unintentionally fool yourself and others and that by avoiding these fallacies more meaningful PinT performance results can be obtained.enMathematikConference Paper10.1007/978-3-030-75933-9_4Other
