LongStraw: Long-Context RL Beyond 2M Tokens under a Fixed GPU Budget
arXiv:2607. 14952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A growing gap separates inference context lengths from RL post-training: inference systems are approaching million-token contexts, while post-training workloads often remain at 256K tokens or below and rely on length generalization at deployment.

DARTree: Speculative Diffusion Decoding with Autoregressive Draft Trees
Speculative decoding losslessly accelerates autoregressive language models by verifying multiple draft tokens in parallel. Diffusion-based drafters further reduce proposal latency by predicting an entire token block in parallel, but their position-wise distributions are marginal rather than conditioned on tokens selected along each draft path.
