arXiv:2606. 02964v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) inference relies on key-value (KV) caches to avoid redundant attention computation.
arXiv:2604. 26968v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Key-value (KV) cache memory management is the primary bottleneck limiting throughput and cost-efficiency in large-scale GPU inference serving.
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.

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:2606. 26666v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive large language model (LLM) serving is increasingly limited by key-value (KV) cache movement rather than dense matrix multiplication.
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.
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...
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.
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:2609.14507v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Single-GPU long-context inference with Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models requires spilling the key-value cache (KVCache) to CPU memory. The spilled KV...
Autoregressive large language model (LLM) serving is increasingly limited by key-value (KV) cache movement rather than dense matrix multiplication. Modern paged-attention systems reduce KV-cache fragmentation and mature kernels such as FlashInfer provide highly optimized native-paged decode attention.
