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.

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.
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:2603. 29002v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern large language models (LLMs) increasingly depends on efficient long-context processing and generation mechanisms, including sparse attention, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and compressed contextual memory, to support complex reasoning.
The quadratic growth of attention computation and key-value (KV) cache with respect to sequence length is a central bottleneck for ultra-long-context language models and high-resolution generative mod...

MILO is a compression framework that reduces the key-value cache memory used in many-shot in-context learning by applying block-wise low-rank compression. It dynamically allocates rank budgets to blocks based on information entropy, preserving important information while aggressively compressing redundant parts. Experiments on Qwen2.5 models show up to a 50% reduction in KV cache memory and a 1.8× throughput improvement with negligible performance loss on classification and reasoning tasks.
