vLLM reports zero train-inference KL on Nemotron-3.5-Lightning-30B-A3B

AISummary

vLLM says its method keeps train-inference KL at exactly 0 on Nemotron-3.5-Lightning-30B-A3B, a Mamba-2 hybrid with NVFP4, in a filtered SWE-bench Pro training subset.

Training reward rises from 0.56 to 0.59, while the baseline run falls from 0.56 to 0.22, comparing the first and last 10 steps.

Rollout throughput reaches 87.5% of baseline over the first 30 steps, and the post notes these are training results, not held-out benchmark scores.
