arXiv:2608. 06628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion language models (dLLMs) offer a promising alternative to autoregressive models by accelerating inference through parallel decoding.
The paper introduces Window-Diffusion, a method that accelerates diffusion language model inference by pruning and caching tokens within a sliding window. It categorizes undecoded tokens into active, buffer, and far-field groups, computing only the first two while discarding the rest. Experiments on LLaDA and Dream demonstrate up to 99× speedup with minimal loss in generation quality.
Flash-dLLM is a training‑free inference acceleration framework that improves the speed and memory efficiency of Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs). It tackles GPU memory I/O bottlenecks by introducing an I/O‑aware fused KV‑cache kernel and then employs a draft‑and‑verify decoding strategy that uses the dLLM itself as both drafter and verifier. Experiments on mathematical reasoning and code‑generation tasks show Flash‑dLLM outperforms existing acceleration methods, achieving up to 11.0× speedups over the Elastic‑Cache baseline.

arXiv:2606. 07571v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Key-value (KV) caching for shared prefixes is essential for high-throughput large language model (LLM) serving, but it faces critical challenges in emerging diffusion language models (DLMs).
arXiv:2608.22646v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion language models can generate many tokens in parallel, but they still require repeated denoising steps during inference. This makes generation...

The paper introduces ACache, an affix-oriented cache reuse mechanism for Diffusion Large Language Models (DLLMs). ACache identifies a small set of critical affix tokens, called Anchor Tokens, and selectively recomputes their key-value states while reusing the rest of the affix cache. Experiments on Fast-dLLM and Nano-vLLM show that recomputing about 20% of affix tokens restores accuracy and can reduce recompute latency by up to 55.7% while improving throughput by up to 1.68×.
