D3D enables asynchronous speculative decoding with a standalone diffusion drafter that prepares successor blocks while the target verifies current tokens. It uses its own prefix representations and reuses a prepared branch only when verification matches; otherwise drafting waits. On Qwen3-32B, it reports 5.71× average decoding speedup across seven tasks, versus DSpark’s 3.92×, under the evaluated setups—not per-GPU efficiency.
