arXiv:2602. 08585v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Given the quadratic complexity of attention, KV cache eviction is vital to accelerate model inference.
arXiv:2604. 25975v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Key-Value (KV) caching is essential for large language model inference, yet its memory overhead poses a critical bottleneck for long-context generation.
arXiv:2602. 10238v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The growing size of Large Language Models (LLMs) makes efficient inference challenging, primarily due to the memory demands of the autoregressive Key-Value (KV) cache.
arXiv:2608. 12331v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reasoning language models generate lengthy chain-of-thought (CoT) sequences whose key-value (KV) cache grows linearly and becomes a memory bottleneck during decoding.
arXiv:2607. 05061v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Key-value (KV) cache growth is a major bottleneck in autoregressive decoding, as memory and bandwidth scale linearly with context length.
arXiv:2606. 29563v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) excel at complex tasks like question answering and summarization, thanks to their ability to handle long-context inputs.
Long-context large language model (LLM) inference is increasingly constrained by the memory footprint and decoding cost of key-value (KV) caches, limiting sustainable deployment on resource-constrained hardware. Existing KV cache eviction methods typically apply heuristic token scoring over all heads in GQA-based LLMs.

arXiv:2607. 27600v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Key-value (KV) cache management through compression and eviction strategies has emerged as an important research direction in recent years.
arXiv:2606. 11164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long chain-of-thought (CoT) trajectories in large language model (LLM) reasoning cause severe inference bottlenecks due to rapid key-value (KV) cache growth.
arXiv:2602. 03203v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recently, large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable reasoning abilities by producing long reasoning traces.
arXiv:2606. 23961v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context and agentic LLM workloads push the KV cache past any fixed memory budget, forcing the inference stack to permanently evict tokens at every step of a continuous-inference stream.
arXiv:2502. 16886v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: To reduce memory consumption during LLM inference, a handful of methods have been proposed for KV cache pruning.
