A recent benchmark compared speculative decoding methods across vLLM and SGLang frameworks using the Qwen3.6-27B model on a single RTX PRO 6000 Max-Q GPU. The DFlash method emerged as the most effective, offering speedups of up to 3.3x on SGLang and 2.5x on vLLM, particularly excelling in math reasoning tasks. Other methods like MTP/NEXTN showed moderate gains, while EAGLE3's performance plateaued, and ngram provided minimal improvement. AI
