Paper: [DFlash: Block Diffusion for Flash Speculative Decoding](https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.06036) (Chen et al., 2026)

Block-diffusion draft generates 16 tokens in one pass. Target verifies in one pass. Output is lossless — every emitted token is verified against the target model before it is committed.
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
## How it works
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
- A small draft model (~1B params) generates 16 tokens in parallel with block diffusion.
|
|
34
|
+
- The target model verifies those 16 tokens in a single forward pass.
|
|
35
|
+
- Greedy acceptance keeps the correct prefix and rejects the rest.
|
|
36
|
+
- Lossless: every emitted token is the target model's greedy argmax at verification time. Output can still differ from pure AR because of MLX dispatch divergence, but no unverified token is ever emitted.
|
|
37
|
+
- Uses stock MLX plus a small number of targeted kernels where rollback and long-context verify need tighter numerical control.
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
## Technical details
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
- **Tape-replay rollback**: instead of snapshotting and restoring the full GatedDeltaNet state, dflash-mlx records an innovation tape during verify and replays only the accepted steps through a custom Metal kernel. Keeps rollback cost low and preserves acceptance over long generations.
|
|
42
|
+
- **JIT SDPA 2-pass**: long-context verify (`N >= 1024`) uses a custom Metal attention kernel that stays numerically aligned with stock MLX attention.
|
|
43
|
+
- **Numerical coherence**: bf16-sensitive paths, including recurrent state replay and small projections, are stabilized across speculative cycles so accepted tokens stay consistent.

### Methodology
|
|
63
|
+
|
|
64
|
+
Hardware: Apple M5 Max, 64GB unified memory. MLX 0.31.1 from the stock pip install.
|
|
65
|
+
|
|
66
|
+
Protocol: stock `mlx_lm.stream_generate` on a pristine target model vs stock MLX plus the local DFlash runtime, measured sequentially. `3` repeats, median reported, `10s` cooldown between measured runs.
|
|
67
|
+
|
|
68
|
+
Generation: prompt `"The function $f$ satisfies the functional equation \[ f(x) + f(y) = f(x + y) - xy - 1 \] for all real numbers $x$ and $y$. If $f(1) = 1$, then find all integers $n$ such that $f(n) = n$. Enter all such integers, separated by commas. Please reason step by step, and put your final answer within \boxed{}."` with chat templates enabled by default, `--no-eos`, and post-prefill tok/s as the primary metric.
|
|

|
+

## Tested models
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
Any model with a DFlash draft on HuggingFace should work.
|
|
108
|
+
|
|
109
|
+
Optimized for Qwen3.5 models (hybrid GatedDeltaNet + attention architecture). Qwen3 (pure attention) models work, but without the precision benefits of tape-replay rollback.

|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
Models without a draft in the registry automatically fall back to standard autoregressive generation.
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
## Features
|
|
121
|
+
|
|
122
|
+
- **Auto draft resolution** — no manual `--draft` flag needed
|
|
123
|
+
- **Streaming** — token-by-token output in the CLI and server
|
|
124
|
+
- **Chat templates** — enabled by default
|
|
125
|
+
- **Recurrent rollback** — `RecurrentRollbackCache` keeps GatedDeltaNet state coherent across speculative verify and rollback
|
|
126
|
+
|
|
127
|
+
## Roadmap
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
- Sustained acceptance at 4096+ tokens — draft KV cache window scaling and long-context verify optimization
|
|
130
|
+
- Full-attention model support (Qwen3, LLaMA) with optimized verify path
|
|
131
|
+
- Draft model distillation and compression for faster draft forward

Block-diffusion draft generates 16 tokens in one pass. Target verifies in one pass. Output is lossless — every emitted token is verified against the target model before it is committed.
|
|
16
|
+
|
|
17
|
+
## How it works
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
- A small draft model (~1B params) generates 16 tokens in parallel with block diffusion.
|
|
20
|
+
- The target model verifies those 16 tokens in a single forward pass.
|
|
21
|
+
- Greedy acceptance keeps the correct prefix and rejects the rest.
|
|
22
|
+
- Lossless: every emitted token is the target model's greedy argmax at verification time. Output can still differ from pure AR because of MLX dispatch divergence, but no unverified token is ever emitted.
|
|
23
|
+
- Uses stock MLX plus a small number of targeted kernels where rollback and long-context verify need tighter numerical control.
|
|
24
|
+
|
|
25
|
+
## Technical details
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
- **Tape-replay rollback**: instead of snapshotting and restoring the full GatedDeltaNet state, dflash-mlx records an innovation tape during verify and replays only the accepted steps through a custom Metal kernel. Keeps rollback cost low and preserves acceptance over long generations.
|
|
28
|
+
- **JIT SDPA 2-pass**: long-context verify (`N >= 1024`) uses a custom Metal attention kernel that stays numerically aligned with stock MLX attention.
|
|
29
|
+
- **Numerical coherence**: bf16-sensitive paths, including recurrent state replay and small projections, are stabilized across speculative cycles so accepted tokens stay consistent.

### Methodology
|
|
49
|
+
|
|
50
|
+
Hardware: Apple M5 Max, 64GB unified memory. MLX 0.31.1 from the stock pip install.
|
|
51
|
+
|
|
52
|
+
Protocol: stock `mlx_lm.stream_generate` on a pristine target model vs stock MLX plus the local DFlash runtime, measured sequentially. `3` repeats, median reported, `10s` cooldown between measured runs.
|
|
53
|
+
|
|
54
|
+
Generation: prompt `"The function $f$ satisfies the functional equation \[ f(x) + f(y) = f(x + y) - xy - 1 \] for all real numbers $x$ and $y$. If $f(1) = 1$, then find all integers $n$ such that $f(n) = n$. Enter all such integers, separated by commas. Please reason step by step, and put your final answer within \boxed{}."` with chat templates enabled by default, `--no-eos`, and post-prefill tok/s as the primary metric.

## Tested models
|
|
92
|
+
|
|
93
|
+
Any model with a DFlash draft on HuggingFace should work.
|
|
94
|
+
|
|
95
|
+
Optimized for Qwen3.5 models (hybrid GatedDeltaNet + attention architecture). Qwen3 (pure attention) models work, but without the precision benefits of tape-replay rollback.

|
|
103
|
+
|
|
104
|
+
Models without a draft in the registry automatically fall back to standard autoregressive generation.
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
## Features
|
|
107
|
+
|
|
108
|
+
- **Auto draft resolution** — no manual `--draft` flag needed
|
|
109
|
+
- **Streaming** — token-by-token output in the CLI and server
|
|
110
|
+
- **Chat templates** — enabled by default
|
|
111
|
+
- **Recurrent rollback** — `RecurrentRollbackCache` keeps GatedDeltaNet state coherent across speculative verify and rollback
|
|
112
|
+
|
|
113
|
+
## Roadmap
|
|
114
|
+
|
|
115
|
+
- Sustained acceptance at 4096+ tokens — draft KV cache window scaling and long-context verify optimization
|
|
116
|
+
- Full-attention model support (Qwen3, LLaMA) with optimized verify path
|
|
117
|
+
- Draft model distillation and compression for faster draft forward
