contents Langevin and Brownian simulations play a prominent role in computational research, and state of the art integration algorithms provide trajectories with different stability ranges and accuracy in reproducing statistical averages. The practical usability of integrators is an important aspect to allow choosing large time steps while ensuring numerical stability and overall computational efficiency. In this work, different use cases and practical features are selected in order to perform a cumulative comparison of integrators with a focus on evaluating the derived velocity and position autocorrelation functions, a comparison that is often disregarded in the literature. A standard industrial open-source software methodology is suggested to compare systematically the different algorithms.
