RL-VLA$^3$ is a fully asynchronous distributed reinforcement learning framework designed for Vision‑Language‑Action (VLA) model training. It allows fine‑grained asynchronous interaction between simulation, inference, and training via dynamic batching schedulers and flexible environment sharding, addressing the variable, resource‑intensive latencies of physical simulators. Experiments across multiple simulation backends, VLA architectures, and RL algorithms show throughput gains of up to 85.2% over synchronous baselines while preserving sample efficiency, and the system scales from 8 to 256 GPUs.

arXiv:2604. 26256v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a critical paradigm for LLM post-training, yet the rollout phase -- accounting for 50--80% of total step time -- is bottlenecked by skewed generation: long-tailed trajectories indispensable for model performance block the entire training pipeline.
