arXiv:2606. 06467v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context inference in modern LLMs is increasingly constrained by decoding efficiency, especially in reasoning-heavy settings where models generate long intermediate chains of thought.
arXiv:2606. 09079v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conventional LLMs keep the full KV cache loaded during decoding, causing a severe GPU memory bottleneck for ultra-long context serving.
arXiv:2607. 06523v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context language model inference is increasingly limited by the memory bandwidth and capacity required to store key-value caches, yet existing compression methods often apply uniform budgets across layers or tokens and degrade retrieval when lexical cues and semantic states require different preservation.
arXiv:2606. 04511v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse attention reduces compute and memory bandwidth for long-context LLM inference.
CompKV introduces a compensation‑aware sparse attention framework for long‑context LLM inference. It partitions tokens into blocks and optimizes token selection to minimize the error introduced by block‑level mean compensation, using compact block‑level statistics. Experiments on RULER and LongBench‑Pro show CompKV outperforms other sparse baselines and achieves up to a 6.85× speedup over full attention.
arXiv:2609.26368v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon and multi-turn agents typically generate short actions and process long observations from tools and environments. This growing context dem...
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.
arXiv:2607. 06519v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context LLM inference is increasingly limited by the memory and bandwidth cost of KV caches, yet aggressive compression can remove the layer-specific evidence needed for retrieval and multi-step reasoning.

GroupKV is a lightweight hierarchical KV cache management system designed for long‑context diffusion large language model (dLLM) inference. It partitions the context into contiguous groups and uses coarse‑to‑fine sparse selection, cross‑layer consistency for predictive prefetching, and a staleness correction mechanism to keep the cache coherent amid dynamic KV updates. The approach also incorporates streaming prefill to lower peak memory usage, achieving up to 48× longer serviceable context, 3.73× faster inference in offload‑based settings, and competitive task accuracy.

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.
