arXiv:2608. 07001v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) process increasingly long contexts, KV cache storage and repeated access have become a major bottleneck.
arXiv:2606. 15157v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: KV cache compression is essential for reducing the memory cost of long-context large language model inference.
arXiv:2607. 00760v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context LLM services now sustain prompts with hundreds of thousands to millions of tokens, making the key-value (KV) cache a first-order serving cost.
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.
arXiv:2607. 01520v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer inference on long sequences is expensive because softmax attention repeatedly reads from a large KV cache.
arXiv:2608. 08684v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context LLM inference is bottlenecked by KV cache memory, yet distributing a limited cache budget across layers remains challenging.
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.
arXiv:2608. 01247v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Query-agnostic KV cache eviction compresses a context once and reuses the resulting cache for arbitrary future queries, but performance can collapse under tight budgets.
arXiv:2606. 17872v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) outperform earlier architectures on generative inference and long-context tasks, but their large size introduces significant challenges in memory usage, energy cost, and on-device deployment.
arXiv:2607. 05399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model serving is increasingly limited by KV-cache growth under long-context workloads, yet existing KV-cache compression techniques are difficult to compare because they were evaluated on different models, tasks, budgets, and serving stacks.
Query-agnostic KV cache eviction compresses a context once and reuses the resulting cache for arbitrary future queries, but performance can collapse under tight budgets. Existing methods primarily improve which original KV pairs are retained.
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.
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.
