DLite: History-Free Speculative Decoding Fixes 80% Acceptance Drop in Agentic AI

SJTU · hf · 2026-10-19

DLite, from SJTU, Shanghai AI Innovation Institute, Tsinghua and Infinigence-AI, tackles speculative decoding under agentic workloads: long, continuously evolving contexts and frequent multi-turn interactions cause up to an 80% degradation in acceptance length for existing draft models, while maintaining historical KV cache adds substantial system overhead. DLite is a history-free framework that directly reuses contextual hidden states from the target model for local speculative prediction without explicitly maintaining history, boosting acceptance length and reducing overhead.
