TamedFlow trains a compact diffusion model to draft several denoising steps, then uses a learned router to accept drafts or roll them back for a step from the original teacher. On class-conditional ImageNet at 256×256, it distills a 675M-parameter teacher into a 130M-parameter student, reaching FID-50K 2.58 at 2.25× measured speedup. The teacher remains deployed, and results cover evaluated settings.
