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.

The paper introduces GRKV, a training‑free method for compressing the key‑value cache in long‑context large language models. GRKV uses ridge‑regression to redistribute information from evicted tokens to retained ones, aiming to minimize the difference between compressed‑cache and full‑cache attention outputs. Experiments on LongBench and RULER show that GRKV improves overall performance with minimal overhead compared to other merging methods.

Long-context language model inference is bottlenecked by memory, as the KV cache grows with context length. Recent techniques to compress the KV cache fall short: they either degrade model quality substantially or require considerable time and compute to compress a single long prompt.
