Speculative Decoding

Speculative Decoding#

SGLang now provides an EAGLE-based (EAGLE-2/EAGLE-3) speculative decoding option. Our implementation aims to maximize speed and efficiency and is considered to be among the fastest in open-source LLM engines. Note: Currently, Speculative Decoding in SGLang is compatible with radix cache and chunked prefill.

Performance Highlights#

Please see below for the huge improvements on throughput for LLaMA-Instruct 3.1 8B tested on MT bench that can be archieved via EAGLE3 decoding. For further details please see the EAGLE3 paper.

Method

Throughput (tokens/s)

SGLang (w/o speculative, 1x H100)

158.34 tokens/s

SGLang + EAGLE-2 (1x H100)

244.10 tokens/s

SGLang + EAGLE-3 (1x H100)

373.25 tokens/s

EAGLE Decoding#

To enable EAGLE speculative decoding the following parameters are relevant:

  • speculative_draft_model_path: Specifies draft model. This parameter is required.

  • speculative_num_steps: Depth of autoregressive drafting. Increases speculation range but risks rejection cascades. Default is 5.

  • speculative_eagle_topk: Branching factor per step. Improves candidate diversity, will lead to higher acceptance rate, but more lead to higher memory/compute consumption. Default is 4.

  • speculative_num_draft_tokens: Maximum parallel verification capacity. Allows deeper tree evaluation but will lead to higher GPU memory usage. Default is 8.

These parameters are the same for EAGLE-2 and EAGLE-3.

EAGLE-2 decoding#

You can enable EAGLE-2 decoding by setting --speculative_algorithm EAGLE and choosing an appropriate model.

NOTE: Typically, the server runs in a separate terminal.
In this notebook, we run the server and notebook code together, so their outputs are combined.
To improve clarity, the server logs are displayed in the original black color, while the notebook outputs are highlighted in blue.
We are running those notebooks in a CI parallel environment, so the throughput is not representative of the actual performance.

EAGLE-2 Decoding via Frequency-Ranked Speculative Sampling#

By employing a truncated high-frequency token vocabulary in the draft model, Eagle speculative decoding reduces lm_head computational overhead while accelerating the pipeline without quality degradation. For more details, checkout the paper.

In our implementation, set --speculative-token-map to enable the optimization. You can get the high-frequency token in FR-Spec from this model. Or you can obtain high-frequency token by directly downloading these token from this repo.

Thanks for the contribution from Weilin Zhao and Zhousx.

NOTE: Typically, the server runs in a separate terminal.
In this notebook, we run the server and notebook code together, so their outputs are combined.
To improve clarity, the server logs are displayed in the original black color, while the notebook outputs are highlighted in blue.
We are running those notebooks in a CI parallel environment, so the throughput is not representative of the actual performance.

EAGLE process is as follows:

  • Within EAGLE the draft model predicts the next feature vector, i.e. the last hidden state of the original LLM, using the feature sequence \((f_1, ..., f_k)\) and the token sequence \((t_2, ..., t_{k+1})\).

  • The next token is then sampled from \(p_{k+2}=\text{LMHead}(f_{k+1})\). Afterwards, the two sequences are extended in a tree style—branching out multiple potential continuations, with the branching factor per step controlled by the speculative_eagle_topk parameter—to ensure a more coherent connection of context, and are given as input again.

  • EAGLE-2 additionally uses the draft model to evaluate how probable certain branches in the draft tree are, dynamically stopping the expansion of unlikely branches. After the expansion phase, reranking is employed to select only the top speculative_num_draft_tokens final nodes as draft tokens.

  • EAGLE-3 removes the feature prediction objective, incorporates low and mid-layer features, and is trained in an on-policy manner.

This enhances drafting accuracy by operating on the features instead of tokens for more regular inputs and passing the tokens from the next timestep additionaly to minimize randomness effects from sampling. Furthermore the dynamic adjustment of the draft tree and selection of reranked final nodes increases acceptance rate of draft tokens further. For more details see EAGLE-2 and EAGLE-3 paper.

For guidance how to train your own EAGLE model please see the EAGLE repo.
