Abstract:We present HyScale, a long-context training system for learned sparse attention. Learned sparse attention is a promising architecture for million-token contexts, widely adopted in production since DeepSeek-V3.2. Selection, however, grows into the training bottleneck. For each query, it scores every previous token whereas sparse attention reads only $k$; worse, current systems materialize a full score table and repeat selection during recomputation. Our key insight is that the output of selection is not an activation, but rather a set of indices. Building on it, HyScale introduces HyTopK and selection replay. HyTopK finds each query's exact top-$k$ on the fly without a score table, while selection replay reuses forward-pass selection in recomputation. Together with holistic system optimizations tackling end-to-end training challenges, HyScale speeds up GLM-5.1 training on 1M-token sequences by 2.07$\times$ over Megatron-LM on 512 H20 GPUs. It also speeds up the CSA layers of DeepSeek-V4-Flash and the QSA layers of Qwen3.8-Flash-Next by 2.01$\times$ and 1.57$\times$ at 1M tokens on 32 H800 GPUs.
