My dual RTX PRO 6000 setup is currently training a Draft model for Qwen 3.6 27B! 🔥 I'm taking the paper DeepSeek dropped on 6/26 and going for a super ambitious application to the 27B scale. Thanks to my homelab, I was able to dive straight in — I read the paper and immediately started experimenting. The amount I've learned has been insane: - How memory bandwidth bottlenecks speed and clever ways to hack around it - Methods to train the draft model and boost its accuracy - Mechanisms to reference tokens all the way back to the previous one to skyrocket draft acceptance rates - The impact of Attention vs. GateDeltaNet on speculative decoding performance and how to handle those differences - The unique approaches and trade-offs of MTP, Dflash, JetSpec, and DSpark I could go on forever, but just from speculative decoding alone I've learned so much. The 27B architecture feels way more DSpark-native than JetSpec, so once draft training finishes, I'm going all-in with DSpark! My goal is to beat existing speculative decoding speeds outright — no task-specific shortcuts or cheating, pure general improvement. If you're into this kind of research, I'd love to hear your thoughts, impressions, and any suggestions — please reply! 🚀

🚀 Self-speculation brings 6.75x real speedup for LLM generation with SGLang inference! Same model drafts future tokens in Diffusion mode → then verifies them in AR (causal) mode. One model and one KV cache. Just different attention masks. Thanks to perfect alignment, we get 2× longer acceptance lengths than MTP techniques (Eagle-3, MTP, dFlash). We run 2 forward passes… but the 2× higher acceptance means we break even - and with zero overhead from extra drafter, KV cache, or LM head that comes with MTP - those are not free. Last week we released Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion + Tri-mode LLMs! We did continued pre-training on Ministral-3 models by switching attention patterns (block causal bidirectional). Result: one model that runs AR mode, Diffusion mode, and Self-Speculation. Diffusion mode already shows high benchmark accuracy - excited to see what happens when someone beats left-to-right acceptance! 🔥 Github: Paper: SGLang inference: Try the models on HF:

I told you to claim your free 16GB NVIDIA GPU for learning Local LLMs. Now I’m going to show you how to double its inference speed without touching the hardware. Google Colab gives you an enterprise grade NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU for free, roughly 4 hours every single day. It is the absolute perfect sandbox for learning AI engineering, testing inference flags, and pushing massive context windows. The local AI timeline is moving way too fast. If you aren't using Multi Token Prediction (MTP) yet, you are leaving massive performance on the table. I just pushed DeepMind’s Gemma 4 26B to 64.9 t/s on this exact free tier. Let's look at the raw benchmark data running on an Ubuntu Linux environment with the latest compiled llama.cpp binaries and quantized GGUFs from Unsloth via HuggingFace: # Qwen 3.5 9B (Dense): Base: [ Prompt: 626.7 t/s | Generation: 21.0 t/s ] With MTP: [ Prompt: 539.1 t/s | Generation: 24.8 t/s ] # Gemma 4 26B QAT (MoE): Base: [ Prompt: 634.2 t/s | Generation: 48.3 t/s ] With MTP: [ Prompt: 572.1 t/s | Generation: 64.9 t/s ] If you are paying attention, this single Colab notebook reveals 3 massive observations about the current state of local LLMs: # 1. The MTP Speedup (Software Overclocking) Standard autoregressive decoding guesses one token at a time. MTP acts like a highly optimized, built in speculative decoder. It predicts multiple future tokens at once and the main model verifies them in parallel. The result? Zero accuracy loss and a massive throughput increase. Gemma jumped from 48 to 65 t/s just by flipping a flag. # 2. The MoE Paradox (Bigger is Faster) How does a 26B parameter model absolutely destroy a 9B model in raw speed on the exact same hardware? Architecture. Qwen 3.5 9B is a dense model. it activates all 9 billion parameters for every single token. Gemma 4 26B is a Mixture of Experts (MoE) model. It routes data efficiently, activating only 4B parameters per token. You get the reasoning capabilities of a 26B model with the compute cost of a 4B model. 3. Thinking Efficiency When I ran the exact same complex prompt on both models, the larger MoE spent significantly fewer "thinking" tokens to arrive at the correct answer. A smarter model doesn't just give better answers; it gets to the point faster, saving you compute cycles and preserving your context window. # Want to run this yourself? Here are the exact llama.cpp CLI commands. For Qwen (MTP is baked into the main model): ./llama-cli -m Qwen3.5-9B-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -p "Explain quantum computing." -n 2000 -c 8000 -ngl 99 -fa on --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-n-max 4 --spec-draft-p-min 0.7 For Gemma (Using a separate lightweight draft model): ./llama-cli -m gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf --model-draft mtp-gemma-4-26B-A4B-it.gguf -p "Explain quantum computing." -n 2000 -c 8000 -ngl 99 -fa on --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-n-max 4 --spec-draft-p-min 0.7 Stop waiting for a $3,000 rig. Boot up Colab, pull these models, and start building your stack. I’ve put together a completely free, cell by cell Google Colab notebook that automates this entire workflow so you can test it yourself in 5 minutes and learn. Link to the notebook is in the comments below. Experiemt with different MTP parameters, context windows and post your results in the comments.

Big moment for text-to-speech. Qwen just open-sourced a text-to-speech model that lets you clone voices, design new ones, and control speech using natural language. Let me explain what I mean: You can literally tell it "speak in a cheerful tone with slight nervousness," and it actually does that. No complex audio engineering needed. What makes this special: - 3-second voice cloning - Covers 10 languages: English, German, French, and more - Latency as low as 97ms for real-time applications - Supports both streaming and non-streaming generation The model comes in two sizes (0.6B and 1.7B parameters), so you can pick based on your hardware and quality needs. Three modes to work with: 1. Custom Voice: Use pre-built premium voices with instruction-based style control 2. Voice Design: Describe the voice you want in plain English (or Chinese), and the model creates it 3. Voice Clone: Provide a 3-second reference audio and clone that voice The best part? It integrates with vLLM for production deployment and has a simple Python package you can pip install. I've shared a link to the GitHub repo in the next tweet.

this is f**king dangerous someone figured out how to make Opus 4.8 run on Fable 5's brain with one prompt access to the best model is never guaranteed. It disappeared once already this year. but you can use it forever. here's how: 1. ask Fable 5: "write the operating manual your replacement will run on" (procedures, failure modes, a 5-question self-test) 2. save the output as one .md file and drop it into a new Claude Project as the project instructions 3. switch to Opus 4.8 and now your everyday model runs off the smart one's method, no top-tier price save and bookmark this no matter what full extraction prompt is in the article below: ↓

I'll always root for a team that open-sources its best work, and Robbyant just did it properly. Robbyant, Ant Group's embodied-AI company, released LingBot-Vision, a vision foundation model for robots, and the part I love is the data. They trained it on 161M images, filtered down from 2B raw ones and mostly pulled straight from the open web, with no human labels, no edge detectors, no depth sensors anywhere in the loop. It learns the exact edges of objects from raw pixels. That's roughly a tenth of the data DINOv3 saw, and under a third of the training. And it shows in the results. On depth, working out how far away things are, the 1B model edges out a 7B on NYU-Depth. It also powers LingBot-Depth 2.0, which reads the surfaces cameras usually choke on, glass and mirrors, and halves indoor depth error. LingBot-Vision is fully open. Weights from the 1.1B flagship down to a tiny 21M version, code, and the paper. This is the timeline I want more of. Robbyant

Qwen 3.8 27B Q4_K_M - 90 tokens/sec on a single NVIDIA RTX 4090 (24 GB VRAM) with Dflash2! (MTP 60 tps -> 90 tps Dflash2!!!!) Local AI moves so fast (literally!) it’s terrifying. Z lab just dropped DFlash 2 for Qwen 3.8 27b and Muse Glimmer. I patched llama.cpp (PR #27342) and paired it with Unsloth’s Qwen 3.8 27B UD-Q4_K_XL quant. The result? Lossless 90 tokens/s decode. My last post highlighted native MTP hitting 60 t/s at 130,000 context. But DFlash 2 just completely shattered that ceiling. By using parallel block diffusion drafting (predicting whole blocks of tokens in a single pass using dynamic convolutions), DFlash achieves a massive 5.39 token acceptance rate. THE ALPHA TWEAK: `n-max 7` eats too much VRAM for draft states. But if you drop the draft limit to `--spec-draft-n-max 4`, you slash the VRAM overhead and actually increase the throughput. Here is the new 24GB VRAM Physics Matrix (DFlash 2 @ n-max 4): - 30k Context: 1,725 t/s prefill | 87.05 t/s decode | 22.2 GB VRAM - 80k Context: 1,789 t/s prefill | 84.20 t/s decode | 23.3 GB VRAM - 110k Context: 1,767 t/s prefill | 83.35 t/s decode | 23.96 GB VRAM (110k context at 83+ tokens a second sitting exactly on the 24GB hardware limit is absolute wizardry). How to compile the PR today: git clone cd llama.cpp git fetch origin pull/27342/head:pr-27342 git switch pr-27342 cmake -B build -DGGML_CUDA=ON && cmake --build build -j Llama.cpp flags for Dflash (110k Context Ceiling): ./build/bin/llama-server -m Qwen3.8-27B-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -md Qwen3.8-27B-DFlash2-Q4_K_M.gguf --spec-type draft-dflash --spec-draft-n-max 4 -c 110000 -ngl 99 --port 8080 -ctv q4_0 -ctk q4_0 The fact that the open source community is shipping block diffusion drafters so quickly that run entirely locally on a gaming GPU is unbelievable. If you own a single RTX 3090 or 4090, it is officially time to upgrade to qwen 3.8 27b with dflash 2 and cancel your API subscriptions and let local silicon eat the cloud. This model beats GPT 5.6 Terra, GLM 5.2 DeepSeek V4 Pro, Muse Spark 1.2 and Claude Opus 4.8 on the artificial analysis agentic index (details in the replies) Hugging Face GGUF links (Base + DFlash2) and the full visual VRAM scaling and Dflash2 vs MTP graphs are also in the replies below. are you sticking to native MTP for the 130k context, or sacrificing 20k context to redline your decode speed? How many tokens/sec are you pushing on your current local rig?

we sped up distributed inference by up to 5x with decentralized speculative decoding. many don't realize that AI models normally generate text one single word at a time, waiting for the network after every word. speculative decoding changes this by using a "guess & confirm" system, similar to autocomplete. how it's done: 1. draft locally (the guess) instead of waiting for the network, a tiny, fast model on your device guesses the next few words instantly, without waiting for the network. 2. confirm remotely (the check) the massive remote model doesn't generate from scratch; it just checks the draft. it looks at the guesses in a batch and says "yes, yes, no." you get multiple words in the time it usually takes to get one. 3. adaptive logic dsd is smart. if the topic is creative, it lets the draft flow loose. if the topic is math or code, it checks more strictly. it balances speed and precision automatically so your inference almost feel instant. find out more: paper: blog:

Introducing Attio Objects 🚀 We know how hard it is to find a CRM that fits your unique business model. That's why we built Attio Objects – our powerful data model with custom objects that gives you complete flexibility to structure your CRM exactly how you need it. Along with custom objects, we've also introduced new standard objects: - Workspaces and Users objects for PLG businesses. - A robust Deals object for sales-driven companies. This is the culmination of a 4-year effort, with 3 years of work put in even before launching Attio. Since day one, we've been determined to solve the fundamental problem in the CRM space: the trade-off between power and time-to-value. If you wanted power and flexibility, your CRM would take forever to build and not work well with your stack. If you wanted speed, you'd need to use highly opinionated, inflexible software that doesn't really work for your business. That ends today. With Attio, you no longer have to compromise. Build your CRM your way, fast. Iterate as you grow. High-growth startups like Replicate, , and Modal and more are already using Attio's object architecture to perfectly match their businesses and accelerate their growth.

Depth Any Video with Scalable Synthetic Data AI physicists and chemists continue to make strides in depth estimation from video. Check out this new paper featuring some impressive examples. See the thread for more details (unfortunately no code yet). Abstract: Video depth estimation has long been hindered by the scarcity of consistent and scalable ground truth data, leading to inconsistent and unreliable results. In this paper, we introduce Depth Any Video, a model that tackles the challenge through two key innovations. First, we develop a scalable synthetic data pipeline, capturing real-time video depth data from diverse game environments, yielding 40,000 video clips of 5-second duration, each with precise depth annotations. Second, we leverage the powerful priors of generative video diffusion models to handle real-world videos effectively, integrating advanced techniques such as rotary position encoding and flow matching to further enhance flexibility and efficiency. Unlike previous models, which are limited to fixed-length video sequences, our approach introduces a novel mixed-duration training strategy that handles videos of varying lengths and performs robustly across different frame rates 0 - even on single frames. At inference, we propose a depth interpolation method that enables our model to infer high-resolution video depth across sequences of up to 150 frames. Our model outperforms all previous generative depth models in terms of spatial accuracy and temporal consistency.

If you thought the Gemma 4 31B (dense) model was fast, sit down. I just benched the updated Gemma 4 26B A4B MoE on a single RTX 4090 (24 GB VRAM) 9,200 t/s prefill. 160 t/s decode. 250,000 context window. All on a single consumer RTX 4090. The numbers are completely unhinged. The 31B is a dense behemoth. But the 26B is a Mixture of Experts (MoE), specifically an Active 4 Billion (A4B). It holds 26B parameters of knowledge but only activates 4B per token. Because its inference memory footprint is so light, I didn’t even need KV cache quantization to hit a quarter million context. Compiled the latest llama.cpp from source on Ubuntu 22 (CUDA 13). Fed it a 28k token prompt, and manually cranked the batch sizes (-b 2048 -ub 2048) to absolutely redline the Tensor Cores. Here is the benchmarking breakdown: # 1. The Baseline (No MTP) Even without speculative decoding, the A4B architecture flies. llama.cpp flags: ./build/bin/llama-server -m gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -c 250000 -ngl 99 -fa on -b 2048 -ub 2048 --port 8080 -v Context Ceiling: 250,000 tokens (21.5 GB VRAM) Prefill: 9,200 t/s (Absurd) Decode: 124 t/s # 2.

Because you can now build a killer local agentic loop on a consumer desktop. Use the 31B dense model (from the previous post) as your heavy, deliberate Orchestrator / Verifier / Planner. Pass the actual execution tasks to this 26B MoE. At 160 t/s, this MoE can chew through code generation, tool calling, and massive RAG document retrieval over a 250k context window almost instantly, drastically speeding up your agentic loop. If you own a single RTX 3090 or 4090 and haven't tried this specific stack yet, you need to pull these latest updates and run it. Local inference just leveled up. Hugging Face links to the Unsloth 26B QAT quants and MTP drafters are in the replies. performance graphs also available in the replies.

Day 11/90 of Inference Engineering How does vLLM work and how is it used in production? Before we discuss how vLLM works internally, it helps to understand what vLLM is. At a high level, vLLM is an inference engine that is designed to serve LLMs to thousands of concurrent users efficiently while managing scarce compute and memory. The goal for vLLM is to maximize throughput and minimize latency; optimizing for the best inference economics and experience for end users. With every request from the end user, it eventually ends up in the engine core, gets scheduled alongside other requests from other concurrent users, executes on the GPU, and updates the KV cache with the new key and value vectors, and streams the tokens back to the user. The Scheduler decides what requests should execute next while continuously batching requests together to maximize GPU utilization. Continuous batching is an inference optimization that allows new requests to join a running batch as other requests finish generating tokens. This helps with keeping the GPU utilization high instead of letting it sit idle waiting for an entire batch to complete generating. After the scheduler dispatches the selected batch to the Model Executor, the Model Executor prepares the tensors and metadata required for inference, retrieves each request’s block table from KV Cache Manager, launches the optimized transformer forward pass on the GPU, computes the logits, updates the KV cache with the new key and value vectors, and finally returns the results for sampling and streaming. The KV Cache Manager uses the PagedAttention memory layout to allocate fixed-size cache blocks on demand and maintains a Free Block Queue on the CPU that tracks which blocks in the GPU’s Paged KV Cache are currently free. When a request needs additional KV cache space, the KV Cache manager takes a free block from the queue and assigns it to that request, thus avoiding an expensive search through GPU memory for available cache blocks. All of these components form the core of vLLM’s inference engine. The Scheduler determines what requests are executed, the Model Executor determines how those requests are executed, the KV Cache Manager determines where each request’s KV cache lives using the PagedAttention Memory Layout. This architecture enables vLLM to serve thousands of concurrent requests with high throughput, low latency, and efficient GPU memory utilization. Heres a little animation that visualizes everything! - I've also completed the forward pass for my mnist.c project. I had a nice chat with shrey birmiwal, such a knowledgeable guy. Excited to learn more about vLLM and implement a tiny-vLLM one day.

As promised, instead of for $15,000 GPUs, we max optimized a model that can fit comfortably in any GPU with 8GB VRAM running Windows 200 tok/s, *128k context, text/image/audio. Anyone who wants to join the local AI community with 5 year old laptop can run this with recipe below, and this test was done on 3070ti laptop I forgot I had. We pulled every instruct model released since May that fits 8 or 12 GB, and ran the six that mattered through the same 20 tasks: JSON extraction, code, a table, arithmetic, a fake-treaty honesty check, tool calls, language, a persona, a fact planted deep in a long prompt, and three photos. Gemma 4 E4B, Gemma 4 12B, Qwen3.5-9B, Qwen3.5-4B, Ornith-1.5-9B, the Qwen3.8-9B distill. E4B is not the top scorer. Qwen3.5-9B and Ornith beat it on long context and on reading fine print in a photo. It won the pick for the things a newcomer on an old card actually needs: Apache 2.0, text + image + audio in, 3 GB of headroom on an 8 GB card, Weights Google trained to be 4-bit (QAT), and Google's own speculative drafter shipped next to them. Nothing else in the tier has all five, and the drafter alone is worth 2–3×.

There are way too many AI 3D models claiming to be the best. So we’re testing them head-to-head. Tripo P1 vs Meshy V6 vs Hunyuan V3.1 Pro vs Rodin 2.5 Same image. Same prompt. No cherry-picking, only 1 generation. This week’s test: a shiny metal helmet. reflections, materials, geometry, and texture accuracy. Next up: characters, objects, environments, and more. By the end, we want one answer: Which AI 3D model should you actually use for your next game, website, or project?

my 8 GB VRAM gaming laptop is absolutely going to hate me for this. but I still did it. ran a 31b dense model (Gemma 4 31b Q4) with only 8 GB VRAM last week I ran Gemma 4 26B A4B a mixture of experts model on my RTX 4060 and hit 25–28 tokens/sec using llama.cpp's new MTP support. smooth. snappy. but MoE has a secret: it only activates 4B parameters per token despite having 26B total. that's why it flies. so the real question started haunting me. what if I throw a full, no tricks, every parameter fires on every token, 31B DENSE model at the same machine? # Hardware: GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060, 8 GB VRAM RAM: 16 GB CPU: Intel Core i7 H Laptop. Gaming. Modest. The model: gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf (model's unsloth huggingface link in the comments) This is Google DeepMind's flagship dense model in the Gemma 4 family that can run on single consumer GPU. It packs a hybrid attention architecture, supports up to 256K context natively, and is QAT (Quantization Aware Training) optimized, meaning it retains far more quality than standard post training quants at the same bit depth. This is NOT the MoE. This is 31 BILLION dense parameters, every single one of them loaded. # the flags I used: -m gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -cnv --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-model mtp-gemma-4-31B-it.gguf --spec-draft-n-max 8 --spec-draft-p-min 0.6 -c 6000 -v Multi Token Prediction (MTP) is still active here. Separate draft GGUF required, same as the 26B setup. # Results: → Decode: ~3 tokens/sec → Prefill: ~2 tokens/sec → Context: 6000 tokens → Hardware crying quietly in the corner: yes so is 3 tps actually usable?

my 8 GB VRAM gaming laptop is absolutely going to hate me for this. but I still did it. ran a 31b dense model (Gemma 4 31b Q4) with only 8 GB VRAM last week I ran Gemma 4 26B A4B a mixture of experts model on my RTX 4060 and hit 25–28 tokens/sec using llama.cpp's new MTP support. smooth. snappy. but MoE has a secret: it only activates 4B parameters per token despite having 26B total. that's why it flies. so the real question started haunting me. what if I throw a full, no tricks, every parameter fires on every token, 31B DENSE model at the same machine? # Hardware: GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060, 8 GB VRAM RAM: 16 GB CPU: Intel Core i7 H Laptop. Gaming. Modest. The model: gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf (model's unsloth huggingface link in the comments) This is Google DeepMind's flagship dense model in the Gemma 4 family that can run on single consumer GPU. It packs a hybrid attention architecture, supports up to 256K context natively, and is QAT (Quantization Aware Training) optimized, meaning it retains far more quality than standard post training quants at the same bit depth. This is NOT the MoE. This is 31 BILLION dense parameters, every single one of them loaded. # the flags I used: -m gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -cnv --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-model mtp-gemma-4-31B-it.gguf --spec-draft-n-max 8 --spec-draft-p-min 0.6 -c 6000 -v Multi Token Prediction (MTP) is still active here. Separate draft GGUF required, same as the 26B setup. # Results: → Decode: ~3 tokens/sec → Prefill: ~2 tokens/sec → Context: 6000 tokens → Hardware crying quietly in the corner: yes so is 3 tps actually usable?

Muse Glimmer, A 30B parameter dense model swallowing a 130,000 token context window using only 19.3 GB of VRAM (extreme efficiency). No KV cache quantization required. I just benched the new Muse Glimmer 30B (dense) on a single RTX 4090. We are pulling 3,100+ t/s prefill and 75 tokens/second decode. The throughput is violent. Meta superintelligence lab just open sourced this agentic beast, explicitly engineered to dominate 24GB consumer cards. I pulled the latest llama.cpp source on Ubuntu 22 (CUDA 13) to see if the specs were real. Fed it a 28k token prompt. Here is the exact llama.cpp God Stack and benchmarking breakdown: # 1. The Deep Context Run (No Speculative Decoding) The architecture uses a massive 16:1 GQA (Grouped Query Attention) ratio. This means the KV cache footprint is practically non existent. ./build/bin/llama-server -m Muse-Glimmer-30B-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -c 130000 -b 4096 -ub 4096 -ngl 99 --port 8080 Prefill: 3134.95 t/s Decode: 50.00 t/s VRAM: 19.34 GB (I hit 130k context on pristine, unquantized f16 cache and still had 4.5 GB of VRAM left over. Absolute witchcraft). # 2. The DFlash Speculative Overdrive Meta shipped this with a DFlash block diffusion drafter. Let's trade that extra VRAM for pure speed. ./build/bin/llama-server -m Muse-Glimmer-30B-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -md dflash-kquant.gguf --spec-type draft-dflash --spec-draft-n-max 3 -c 80000 -b 4096 -ub 4096 -ngl 99 --port 8080 Prefill: 1293.69 t/s Decode: 75.00 t/s VRAM: 23.93 GB (Maxed out on card) the dflash gguf is additional 1.6 GBs # The Architecture Insight (Muse Glimmer vs. Gemma 4 31B) If you look at my Gemma 4 31B tests from last week, getting 140k context required heavily degrading the memory with Q4 KV quantization (gemma 31b q4 can do only about 40k context with unquantized kv on a 24gb card). That "unzipping" overhead bottlenecked Gemma's MTP decode speeds down to 65 t/s. Muse Glimmer completely sidesteps this bottleneck. By using aggressive 16:1 GQA, it keeps the KV cache in native f16 format at massive context lengths. Flash Attention gets to run at maximum uncompressed speed, letting the DFlash drafter push decode safely to 75 t/s without compute lag. With a 76% on SWE Bench Verified and seamless local tool calling, this model looks promising. Unsloth's Hugging Face GGUF links, intelligence/agentic benchmark details, and inference throughput performance graphs are posted in the replies. For 24GB rig, what’s your current go to model?
