DeepSeek releases DSpark: speculative decoding system for LLM inference acceleration

DeepSeek published DSpark, a paper describing a speculative decoding system designed to accelerate LLM inference. The paper is hosted on DeepSeek's GitHub and attracted significant Hacker News engagement (598 points, 228 comments), suggesting meaningful community interest. Speculative decoding is an active inference optimization technique, and a release from DeepSeek carries weight given their track record on inference efficiency.
