Researchers have developed BAG (Budget-Aware Gating), a new caching policy designed to accelerate Diffusion Transformers (DiTs). Unlike previous methods that either lacked budget awareness or instance adaptivity, BAG uses a lightweight gating network to dynamically decide whether to re-use cached features or perform full computation. This approach, trained via offline-to-online schedule distillation, consistently outperforms existing caching techniques across various speedup levels and resolutions on FLUX.1-dev and Wan2.1 datasets.
