`BaseThinkingReasoningParser.extract_reasoning_streaming` probes the accumulated `previous_token_ids` with `in` on every delta. That is O(len) per call and O(n^2) over a completion, so long reasoning streams spend a growing share of each token's budget re-scanning history they have already seen. It shows up as steadily rising inter-token latency on DeepSeek R1 and the other `<think>`-style models built on this base class. Mirror the history into a set that is extended by the newly appended tail on each call, and probe the set instead. The cache is derived entirely from the argument the caller passes in: when the incoming sequence does not extend the previous one (a rewind, or a fresh stream on a reused parser), the set is rebuilt from scratch rather than assuming a call pattern. Parser output is unchanged; the existing `tests/reasoning` suite passes. Two regression tests cover the new behaviour: one asserts the parser reads only the new tail rather than re-scanning (126k element reads drop to <1.5k over 500 deltas), and one asserts a rewound history clears stale markers.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Do not treat one matching token as append-only proof.
This condition accepts a replaced history when its retained boundary token matches _seen_tail. For example, after caching [1, 2, 3], a new [9, 8, 3] reuses the old set and retains marker IDs 1 and 2.
DeepSeekR1ReasoningParser then skips its no-start-token fallback and can emit content instead of reasoning. Carry an explicit stream revision or append-only guarantee from the caller, and add this replacement case to the regression test.

Verified locally (head c3886ea vs base 21a2211, executed runs). Sound optimization; semantics preserved; no regressions.
Verification performed:
- New perf test
test_streaming_membership_only_reads_new_token_idsFAILS on base (unboundedin previous_token_idsrescans → ~125k_CountingSequencereads across the 500-iteration loop vs the ≤1500 bound) and passes on head (~2-3 reads/iteration). Regression-proof is genuine — it measures the O(n²)→O(n) change directly. - New rewind test
test_streaming_membership_rebuilds_after_history_rewindpasses on both base and head (base is correct by rescans; on head it locks in the cache-rebuild path). - Full
tests/reasoning/suite: base 480 passed vs head 482 passed — delta is exactly the two new tests, zero regressions across all other reasoning parsers (including the DeepSeekR1 branch that now consults_seen_token_idsafter the super() call refreshes it). - Logic traced end-to-end:
_refresh_seen_token_ids()runs at the top ofextract_reasoning_streaming— before the single-special-token early return and before DeepSeekR1's own post-super() checks — so the cached set is always refreshed for the current call regardless of early-return paths. Theextends_previousfast path (update(previous[_seen_len:])) plus full rebuild fallback are semantically equivalent toset(previous_token_ids)for monotonic streams. - ruff clean on both changed production files + the test file.
Non-blocking notes (no change required for merge):
- The
extends_previousheuristic trusts the prefix whenlength >= _seen_lenand only the boundary element (previous[_seen_len-1] == _seen_tail) matches. A same-length or longer history with identical boundary but divergent earlier content would silently reuse the stale set. This is unreachable through the currentparse_delta/StreamState.advanceaccumulation path (per-request parser, monotonic growth, rewinds go shorter → full rebuild), so it is not a live bug — but tightening the condition to require strict growth (length > _seen_len) for the fast path, or keying the trust on the caller's monotonicity, would make the invariant robust to future callers that rewind to equal-length histories. The rewind test covers only the shorter-rewind shape. - Both this PR and #55210 (also open, same base) touch
vllm/reasoning/basic_parsers.py::extract_reasoning_streaming— hunks are disjoint and compose cleanly in my reading (refresh-at-top + membership-source swap here; start-token-strip in the start-in-delta/no-end branch there), but worth a merge-order sanity check when both land. - Memory:
_seen_token_idsgrows to the full stream token count, same order as the already-retainedprevious_token_idslist — negligible incremental cost.
Clean, well-targeted perf fix with a real regression test. Thanks!

Purpose
BaseThinkingReasoningParser.extract_reasoning_streamingprobes the accumulatedprevious_token_idswithinseveral times per streamed delta.previous_token_idsis the full output history, so each probe scans a growing prefix: O(len) per call and O(n²) over a completion. On long reasoning responses this shows up as steadily rising inter-token latency.This change mirrors the history into a set that is extended by the newly appended tail on each call, and probes the set instead. Membership becomes O(1) amortized.
The cache is derived entirely from the argument the caller passes in. When the incoming sequence does not extend the previous one — a rewind, or a fresh stream on a reused parser instance — the set is rebuilt from scratch rather than assuming a particular call pattern. That keeps the change safe without having to prove that
extract_reasoning_streamingis always invoked exactly once per delta, in order.Fixing this in the base class covers every
<think>-style parser built on it, includingdeepseek_r1and the parsers that delegate to it (deepseek_v3,holo2,poolside_v1).Parser-only microbenchmark, one single-token delta per step, history grown in place so the harness stays O(1):
4x more tokens costs the current code ~15x more time (quadratic) and the patched code ~4x more (linear).
This PR is scoped to the repeated membership scans. It does not change how the frontend constructs the accumulated token histories.
Duplicate check
Before submission I searched open PRs and issues for
previous_token_ids reasoning parser O(n²),streaming reasoning parser quadratic, andmembership previous_token_ids; no PR covers this extraction path. #51238 optimizesis_reasoning_end_streamingfor engine-backed parsers, and #54454 addresses full-sequence decoding in the Muse Glimmer parser. Neither touches these membership scans.Test Plan
python -m pytest tests/reasoning/ -q --ignore=tests/reasoning/test_cohere_command_reasoning_parser.py python -m pytest tests/reasoning/test_deepseekr1_reasoning_parser.py \ tests/reasoning/test_deepseekv3_reasoning_parser.py \ tests/reasoning/test_base_thinking_reasoning_parser.py -q pre-commit run --files vllm/reasoning/basic_parsers.py \ vllm/reasoning/deepseek_r1_reasoning_parser.py \ tests/reasoning/test_deepseekr1_reasoning_parser.pyParser output is unchanged, so the existing suite is the primary check. Two regression tests were added:
test_streaming_membership_only_reads_new_token_idsdrives 500 deltas through a countingSequenceand asserts the parser reads only the new tail plus constant-size boundary checks. Reverting the cache takes this from ~1.5k element reads to ~127k.test_streaming_membership_rebuilds_after_history_rewindasserts a rewound history clears stale markers. Forcing the append-only path unconditionally makes it fail.I verified both tests fail against mutated implementations, so neither is vacuous.
