 In vLLM's V1 architecture, `torch.compile` is enabled by default and is a critical part of the framework. This document gives a simple walk-through example to show how to understand the `torch.compile` usage.
 
-Throughout the example, we will run a common Llama model using v1, and turn on debug level logging to show all the details. The command to be used is `VLLM_USE_V1=1 VLLM_LOGGING_LEVEL=DEBUG vllm serve meta-llama/Llama-3.2-1B`.
