Local AI tools boost LLM speeds with new prediction and decoding techniques

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Recent updates in the local AI community are enhancing inference speeds and providing practical benchmarks for open-weight models. The llama.cpp project now supports Multi-Token Prediction (MTP), which has shown a 40% speedup for Gemma 26B models on consumer hardware. Separately, vLLM, utilizing DFlash speculative decoding, has enabled the Gemma 4 26B model to reach 600 tokens per second on an RTX 5090 GPU. Additionally, the Ollama community has released benchmarks comparing Qwen and DeepSeek coding models for local development tasks. AI

IMPACT Accelerates local development and experimentation with open-weight LLMs by improving inference speed and providing comparative performance data.
