State-of-the-art large language model (LLM) training takes tens of thousands of graphics processing units (GPUs) for months and encounters failures across the software and hardware stack. Existing fault-tolerance mechanisms either impose non-trivial overhead during failure-free execution or suffer from prolonged recovery latency, particularly under scenarios where a small subset of compute nodes experience permanent failures.

The paper presents a method for distributing large language model inference across multiple Intel AI PCs by splitting the model into pipeline shards, each pre‑compiled into an OpenVINO graph. Three key techniques—beam_idx Gather to enable GPU optimizations, speculative decoding on stateful models, and interleaved micro‑batching—allow a two‑node Llama 3.1 8B INT4 pipeline to serve two users at 1.79× the throughput of a single‑node model, while a four‑node deployment can run a 70B model that no single PC can hold. The authors provide code, benchmark logs, and reproduction scripts on GitHub.

TIDE (Temporal Incremental Draft Engine) is a serving‑engine‑native framework that integrates online draft adaptation into high‑performance LLM inference. By reusing intermediate hidden states from the target model as training signals, TIDE avoids extra target model computation and serving‑time overhead, activating speculation and draft training only when beneficial. On heterogeneous GPU clusters, TIDE achieves up to 1.66× higher throughput than no‑speculation baselines, reduces training time by up to 3.02×, cuts storage needs by 24×, and improves system throughput by up to 1.22×.
