arXiv:2609.37988v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As the context size of text processed with an LLM grows, the size of KV caches can outstrip the memory allocated for the original model weights. This i...

The paper introduces JoLT, a training‑free compressor that jointly allocates rank and precision for key‑value (KV) cache compression in long‑context language models. JoLT treats grouped prefill caches as fourth‑order tensors, applies partial Tucker decomposition along token and feature modes, and uses a rotated low‑bit quantizer for residuals, all governed by a single Lagrangian dual under a global byte constraint. Across five models from four architecture families, JoLT achieves 2–3× compression with less than 0.2% perplexity loss, and near‑lossless retrieval accuracy on LLaMA‑3.1‑8B at 64K context up to 3× compression.
