Decision brief

REST is a retrieval-based speculative decoding method for enhancing the efficiency of large language model inference, implemented in C under the Apache-2.0 license.

Good fit when

  • Use REST when you need to improve the efficiency of large language model inference through retrieval-based speculative decoding.
  • Consider REST if your project requires a method that can handle large language models with improved speed and efficiency, and you are working with the C language.

Avoid when

  • Avoid REST if your project does not require improvements in the efficiency of large language model inference.
  • Do not use REST if your project is not compatible with the C language or if you prefer a different license than Apache-2.0.
