LongStraw enables RL post-training beyond 2M tokens on fixed GPU budgets

By PulseAugur Editorial · [3 sources] ·

Researchers have developed LongStraw, an execution stack designed to enable Reinforcement Learning (RL) post-training for models with context lengths exceeding 2 million tokens, even under fixed GPU constraints. This system addresses the growing disparity between inference context lengths and current RL post-training capabilities. LongStraw achieves this by optimizing the evaluation of shared prompts and selectively retaining necessary model states, thereby reducing the computational load. Initial implementations for Qwen3.6-27B and GLM-5.2 models demonstrate the capacity to process prompts up to 4.46 million tokens, establishing execution feasibility for extremely long contexts. AI

IMPACT Enables training of AI agents with significantly longer context windows, potentially improving their ability to handle complex, multi-turn interactions and large documents.
