torch.compile & Kernel Fusion
A runtime that already knows the sequence it is about to run has nothing left to decide. The eager execution overhead lesson closed on that property and priced its absence: several hundred separately arranged operations inside a decode step whose whole budget is a few milliseconds. PyTorch's route from deciding to knowing is one function, torch.compile, introduced in PyTorch 2.x…
