Observing Speculative Decoding Latency Spikes in Low-Throughput Environments
August 29, 2026
Low-throughput inference (2-3 t/s) using multi-token prediction (MTP) allows for the visual observation of speculative decoding benefits during high-probability phrase generation. This behavior suggests potential optimization opportunities by combining speculative decoding with n-gram Markov chains.
