Diffusion-based Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models achieve strong performance in embodied tasks, but their iterative sampling imposes heavy computational and memory-access cost, blocking real-time deployment on edge platforms. Existing acceleration methods either require expensive training (e.g., distillation, flow matching) or degrade perception via statically scheduled pruning and caching, ignoring the dynamic workload variance of robotic interactions. This paper presents FASA (Feedback-Aware Sampling Adaptation), a training-free runtime framework that treats real-time multimodal feedback as a control signal for the denoising pipeline: an interaction-driven range adaptor modulates the global sampling-step budget based on visual and gripper-force feedback, and a proprioception-aware step adaptor pinpoints the optimized step within the adapted range. This co-designed framework allows the underlying hardware architecture to adaptively match the workload demands of different execution phases. Comparative evaluations across several benchmarks show that the inference speed can be increased by up to 1.45$\times$ while maintaining competitive success rates, providing a novel dynamic runtime architecture paradigm for deploying heavy generative embodied AI workloads onto resource-constrained computing platforms.
