A Python package extending official PyTorch with Intel-specific optimizations for CPUs and GPUs, including quantization and LLM inference acceleration. The project is now archived and retired, with most features upstreamed into PyTorch itself.

Use cases

• speed up pytorch inference on intel cpus
• quantize pytorch models for intel hardware
• run llm inference faster on intel gpus
• optimize deep learning training on intel xeon
• get better pytorch performance on intel platforms

When to choose

• you are stuck on an older PyTorch version that lacks Intel optimizations
• you maintain a legacy project that already depends on this package

When to avoid

• starting any new project - use PyTorch directly instead
• you need ongoing support, bug fixes, or security patches
• you need official binary wheels or new releases
• you want actively maintained Intel hardware optimizations
