Asynchronous Off-Policy Training

0x Faster Throughput Increase with Async Off-Policy RL

Overlapping rollout generation and training on disjoint GPUs significantly boosts end-to-end system throughput. This approach prevents inference engines from stalling while waiting for updated policies, allowing for continuous data flow and faster iteration times.

Sandboxes: Naive vs. Prime

Feature Naive Orchestration Prime Sandboxes
Execution Latency Seconds (API server bottleneck) Milliseconds (Bypasses K8s API)
Scalability Unscalable at high concurrency High-throughput, thousands of concurrent rollouts
Security Standard container isolation gVisor user-space kernel isolation
Image Distribution Slow (Docker Hub rate limits) Fast (Custom Registry, Image Streaming, Warm Pools)

INTELLECT-3 on AIME 2024/2025

INTELLECT-3 achieved remarkable performance on challenging math benchmarks. Scoring 90.8% on AIME 2024 and 88.0% on AIME 2025, it surpassed DeepSeek's frontier models and matched GLM-4.6, despite having over 3x fewer parameters. This demonstrates the effectiveness of our end-to-end RL training pipeline and specialized math environment.
