arXiv:2606. 24467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: 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.
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: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:2607. 01237v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reasoning language models often generate long chain-of-thought (CoT), which accumulates a massive KV cache during the decoding phase and incurs high decoding latency and limited throughput.
arXiv:2605. 25475v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly expected to operate over long contexts, yet standard softmax attention incurs a KV cache that grows linearly with sequence length, quickly becoming the bottleneck for long context inference.
The paper addresses the challenge of long input contexts in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems, where concatenating many retrieved chunks increases prefill workload and time to first token (TTFT). It proposes a dual strategy: fine‑tuning the model to be aware of KV cache concatenation and selectively recomputing only part of the KV caches. Experiments on the RULER benchmark show that for a 124k‑token input, this combined method boosts the RULER score by 9.7 points over a baseline that recomputes caches only, while cutting TTFT by 80% compared with full attention.
