ReplaySSM: Cache SSM Inputs, Not State
State-space models (SSMs) maintain a fixed-size recurrent state, but reading and writing it at every decoding step can bottleneck hybrid models. This eager state management causes large state I/O with low arithmetic intensity, leaves speculative decoding no cheap rollback, and feeds state quantization error into subsequent recurrent updates. We introduce ReplaySSM, which unrolls the recurrence to…
