arXiv:2605. 09370v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large-scale AI training is now fundamentally a distributed systems problem, and hardware failures have become routine operating conditions rather than rare exceptions.

Leto: Fast In-Place Recovery for LLM Training on Surviving Hardware

Leto is a fault‑tolerant training system for large language models that enables fast in‑place recovery on surviving hardware after hardware‑operable failures. It retains the working model state and reusable process state, while pre‑initializing remaining state in a shadow trainer, using two‑tier erasure protection and chunk‑level transactional updates to maintain consistency. Experiments on NVIDIA A100 clusters show Leto recovers 3.6–6.5× faster than checkpointing baselines and boosts productive training time by up to 13.7 percentage points, with simulations indicating over 95% productivity on a 131,072‑GPU cluster.
