arXiv:2510. 01565v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion Transformer (DiT) models excel at generating high-quality images through iterative denoising steps, but serving them under strict Service Level Objectives (SLOs) is challenging due to their high computational cost, particularly at larger resolutions.

EAServe introduces an encode-aware disaggregated serving framework for multimodal large language models (MLLMs), restructuring the traditional Prefill-Decode pipeline into a three-stage Encode-Prefill-Decode (EPD) system. By treating Encode as the control point, EAServe coordinates load‑adaptive micro‑batching, rate‑controlled offloading to prefill workers, and dynamic SM partitioning to balance GPU utilization across stages. Its Hybrid Auto Selection (HAS) layer optimizes GPU allocation, encode batch size, and offload ratio using capacity profiling and Bayesian optimization, achieving up to 4.3× higher goodput compared to NVIDIA Dynamo and 1.7× higher than vLLM on various MLLM architectures.

arXiv:2608. 12932v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models promise to bring end-to-end reasoning to autonomous driving, but their computational cost remains far too high for real-time control.

Masked diffusion language models (dLLMs) promise faster text generation by denoising multiple tokens simultaneously, yet their real‑world serving behavior has been largely unexamined. Using LLaDA‑8B‑Instruct on a single NVIDIA H200 GPU, the study finds that request difficulty is discretized into 11 step‑count levels, short‑budget benchmarks underestimate serving variance, and only 24% of single‑request time is GPU computation, with batching mainly reducing CPU dispatch overhead. The authors also demonstrate that output quality remains stable across batch sizes and propose a batch‑timeout rule for synchronized batching under Poisson arrivals.

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models promise to bring end-to-end reasoning to autonomous driving, but their computational cost remains far too high for real-time control. The core challenge is structural: VLA inference is not a single bottleneck but a cascade of four.

arXiv:2606. 05981v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Aggressive distillation of the diffusion U-Net inverts the per-frame bottleneck of real-time text-to-image pipelines: once the denoiser is a 4-step or 1-step distilled student, the text encoder becomes the critical path.
