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. 06302v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-turn LLM serving accumulates dialogue history whose Key-Value (KV) cache grows with every turn and every user, quickly exceeding the model weights themselves and making memory -- not compute -- the binding constraint on throughput.
