How torch.compile Works
Diagram comparing standard PyTorch execution with compiled PyTorch execution. The standard flow shows operations running sequentially with Python overhead, while the compiled flow shows graph capture, optimization, and hardware-specific compilation resulting in 2-10x faster performance.
How @torch.compile Works
Standard PyTorch Execution
Compiled PyTorch Execution
Python Interpreter Executes Code
PyTorch Operations Run One by One
Python Overhead Between Operations
Limited Optimization Opportunities
Model Graph Captured
Graph Optimized & Transformed
Compiled to Efficient Code
Hardware-Specific Optimizations
Performance: 2-10x Faster Execution
