arXiv:2606. 06256v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As the input length of large language model (LLM) serving continues to grow, the KV cache has become a dominant bottleneck in AI infrastructure.
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.

arXiv:2607. 02574v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The key-value (KV) cache has become a first-order memory object in LLM serving rather than a temporary per-request tensor.
arXiv:2608. 06557v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The reasoning and agentic capabilities of large language models have expanded the range of applications they support, from short interactive exchanges to long, compute-heavy requests.
Long-context inference retains a growing key--value (KV) cache during decoding, which consumes substantial GPU memory and can reduce generation throughput. This bottleneck remains in hybrid language m...
arXiv:2606. 06302v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-turn Large Language Model (LLM) serving is critical for consistent user experiences, yet the linear growth of the Key-Value (KV) cache imposes significant pressure on GPU memory and bandwidth.
TeDiServe is a cluster‑level serving system designed for diffusion language models (DLMs). It addresses DLM‑specific challenges such as the speed‑quality tradeoff from confidence‑based denoising, variable parallelization under fluctuating load, and non‑uniform per‑step costs from approximate KV caching. By employing deadline‑aware scheduling, adaptive load control, and a quality‑aware optimization for cluster reconfiguration, TeDiServe achieves up to 56.6 percentage points higher SLO attainment and reduces end‑to‑end latency by up to 46% with less than 1% accuracy loss.
arXiv:2607. 27090v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models are increasingly deployed with persistent personalized context, such as accumulated memory profiles or long conversation histories, that is shared across a user's many requests.
Multi-turn Large Language Model (LLM) serving is critical for consistent user experiences, yet the linear growth of the Key-Value (KV) cache imposes significant pressure on GPU memory and bandwidth. Non-uniform KV compression effectively preserves more information by considering the individual importance of each KV cache.
HeadWiseKV is a training‑free framework that compresses the residual global key–value caches of hybrid long‑context language models by assigning each physical KV head a static, multilevel history window. It formulates cache allocation as a restricted operational rate–distortion problem and uses the SeqCalib algorithm to generate per‑head residency policies that account for interactions across layers. In evaluations on four hybrid models, HeadWiseKV preserves near‑full‑KV quality while reducing peak device memory usage by 8.59% at a 112K context length and extending the largest verified context from 114K to 161K.
