High-resolution image and video diffusion models, including SD3, FLUX, and recent video diffusion transformers, have substantially improved generative quality but remain expensive at inference time because they repeatedly evaluate attention-heavy denoisers over many sampling steps. We address this inefficiency by exploiting redundancy in intermediate diffusion features rather than changing model weights or retraining.
SoftCache introduces an adaptive step size caching mechanism for diffusion transformers, replacing hard binary caching with a soft approach that uses a headroom signal to determine how far cached steps advance. By allowing steps to jump beyond scheduled nodes and shrink as a refresh nears, SoftCache achieves significant speedups—between 3.5× and 6.9×—across image and video models such as FLUX, HunyuanVideo, and Wan2.1, outperforming all baselines on four fidelity metrics.

Driving video generation models support autonomous-driving development by predicting controllable future scenes for simulation, planning evaluation, and offline data generation. Diffusion-based driving generators repeatedly evaluate large backbones across denoising steps, which limits generation throughput.
