Conduit: An Experience Data Plane for Distributed Reinforcement Learning

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

Distributed reinforcement learning (RL) scales training by parallelizing actors and learners around an Experience Buffer. As RL workloads grow, however, the buffer becomes more than a replay queue: it is the storage substrate of a large-capacity, latency-critical experience path that every iteration traverses to move, transform, sample, and batch experiences before learner updates can begin. Existing RL systems embed this path inside framework control flow or expose it as a request-driven buffer service, leaving experience placement fixed and experience-path work difficult to schedule independ
