" summary

PyTorch Mobile reports concrete wins: a MobileNetV2 FP model drops from ~250 ms to under 15 ms (over 10×) since 1.3, a caching allocator yields 5–20% speedups, and a ResNet18 on iPhone 11 shows ~33% gain using Metal and Vulkan GPU backends. Model preparation is handled by optimize_for_mobile (batch‑norm folding, weight prepacking, freezing). The release adds device tutorials, demo apps (segmentation, translation), a custom-operator Android guide, and support for mobile inference accelerators.
