Accelerate commerce agents with speculative decoding and fine-tuned models to reduce latency and cost

advanced Published 23 Apr 2026
Action Steps
  1. Implement speculative decoding with EAGLE3 on your commerce agent model to reduce latency
  2. Fine-tune your model using domain-specific data to improve performance
  3. Configure and test different speculative token counts (e.g. gamma=3, gamma=5) to find the optimal setting
  4. Compare the performance of EAGLE3 with other inference-time optimization techniques, such as NVIDIA NIM
  5. Apply the optimized model to your production environment to measure the impact on latency and cost

Title: Accelerating PayPal's Commerce Agent with Speculative Decoding: An Empirical Study on EAGLE3 with Fine-Tuned Nemotron Models

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.19767v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We evaluate speculative decoding with EAGLE3 as an inference-time optimization for PayPal's Commerce Agent, powered by a fine-tuned llama3.1-nemotron-nano-8B-v1 model. Building on prior work (NEMO-4-PAYPAL) that reduced latency and cost through domain-specific fine-tuning, we benchmark EAGLE3 via vLLM against NVIDIA NIM on identical 2xH100 hardware across 40 configurations spanning speculative token counts (gamma=3, gamma=5), concurrency levels (
