GLM-5.2 speculative decode runs on 4x DGX GB10 cluster

A user successfully implemented GLM-5.2 with MTP speculative decoding on a 4x DGX GB10 cluster, achieving approximately 9.4 tokens/second. This involved reconstructing missing build modifications from public kernels and ensuring the use of a specific vLLM reference commit to avoid weight loading errors. The user also detailed steps for optimizing the setup, including a data-free pruning method to fit the model into memory and notes on network configuration for multi-node performance. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates advanced deployment techniques for large models on specialized hardware, potentially improving inference speeds for users with similar setups.

    Got GLM-5.2 + MTP speculative decode running on 4× DGX Spark (GB10) — and the build piece the public recipe is missing

    <!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>TL;DR: the recipe's image-build mods aren't actually public – I reconstructed them from the public kernels (with Claude) – and you have to build vLLM at the author's exact pinned ref or the real AWQ weights crash on load. Running now at ~9.4 tok/…
