Kimi-K2.6 DSpark GGUF

GGUF quantizations of novita DSpark draft model for Kimi-K2.6.

Use with BeeLlama.cpp, a llama.cpp fork with advanced quantization features.

Kimi-K2.6 DSpark speculator

Overview

A DSpark speculator model for the Kimi-K2.6 base model, enabling faster inference through speculative decoding. DSpark extends the DFlash parallel draft backbone with two lightweight heads: a Markov logit-bias head (low-rank intra-block token dependency) and a per-position confidence head (accept-rate prediction). Trained with a vendored fork of the speculators library through the Camelot-Ray online pipeline (draft consumes hidden states streamed from a live Kimi-K2.6 vLLM server).

Model Specifications

Base Model: Kimi-K2.6
Format: Safetensors (single-file bf16, 6.3 GB, 44 tensors)
Draft: 3 layers (Qwen3-style GQA), hidden 7168, 56 heads / 8 KV heads, head_dim 128, FFN 18432, rope_theta 50000, block_size=8
Vocabulary: pruned draft vocab 32,000 (d2t/t2d remap tables shipped in the weights), target vocab 163,840; mappings built from training-distribution assistant-turn token frequencies
DSpark heads: Markov rank 256 (vanilla), confidence head (with-markov), mask_token_id=163608
Aux hidden-state layers: [1, 29, 57]
Trained context: seq 20000

Evaluation Results

Online vLLM nightly spec-decode, greedy decoding, TP=8, Kimi-K2.6 verifier, max_model_len=20000, cudagraphs enabled, and fuse_allreduce_rms=false.

The table also includes the public Eagle3-MLA draft lightseekorg/kimi-k2.6-eagle3-mla. Cells show tok/s / speedup / accept_len. Standard rows use 6 prompts per benchmark. Code-extra rows use the full LiveCodeBench and SPEED-Bench coding manifests with max_tokens=512.

Use DSpark with num_speculative_tokens=7 as the default for math/code traffic.

Serving with vLLM

Requires vLLM nightly (DSpark support):

uv pip install vllm --extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/nightly

vllm serve <path-or-id-of-Kimi-K2.6> \
    --tensor-parallel-size 8 \
    --max-model-len 20000 \
    --trust-remote-code \
    --speculative-config '{
        "model": "novita/kimi-k2.6-dspark",
        "num_speculative_tokens": 7,
        "method": "dspark"
    }'

Known vLLM-nightly (0.23.1rc1.dev786) caveats, with workarounds:

Draft-side FA3 AOT scheduling crashes with scheduler_metadata must have shape (metadata_size) — the GPU-worker spec-decode path misses fast_build=True when building draft attention metadata. Patch vllm/v1/worker/gpu/spec_decode/speculator.py / vllm/v1/worker/gpu/attn_utils.py to pass fast_build=True (mirrors build_for_drafting() on the legacy proposer path).
CUDA-graph capture fails with a flashinfer allreduce workspace-size error under spec-decode token expansion; disable the fusion: --compilation-config='{"pass_config": {"fuse_allreduce_rms": false}}'.

Training Details

Data: Regenerated open-perfectblend dataset — the open-perfectblend instruction mix with all assistant turns regenerated by Kimi-K2.6 itself (raw hidden states streamed from the live verifier); seq 20000
Steps: 20000 (16.0h, zero restarts); loss 1.656 → 0.363 (1000-step window)
Schedule: lr 3e-4 cosine, warmup 300, global batch 8, accumulation 2
Loss: 0.1·CE + 0.9·TV over block-diffusion anchors, decay_gamma 4.0, max_anchors 3072
Semantics: post-norm last hidden captured at rollout (apply_verifier_norm=False), hidden_states = concat of aux layers [1, 29, 57]
