The paper introduces FairInference, a system that guarantees token-level latency isolation for well-behaved clients in multi-tenant LLM serving. It provides a δ-token fairness guarantee, ensuring that a token generated in isolation within time d will be produced within d + δ in a shared environment. The approach enforces per-token deadlines, bounds GPU compute sharing delays, and accounts for shared KV cache overhead, leading to reduced latency spikes and higher overall throughput compared to existing LLM serving systems.

LLM serving is typically offered as a shared, multi-tenant service, where high-demand workloads from one client can cause latency SLO violations for others. Existing solutions for performance isolatio...
arXiv:2511. 04791v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Modern LLM serving systems must sustain high throughput while meeting strict latency SLOs across two distinct inference phases: compute-intensive prefill and memory-bound decode phases.

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: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.
