arXiv:2608. 02691v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The key-value (KV) cache has become a major memory and bandwidth bottleneck in long-context large language model inference, making ultra-low-bit quantization increasingly important.

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.
arXiv:2606. 29563v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) excel at complex tasks like question answering and summarization, thanks to their ability to handle long-context inputs.

arXiv:2510. 07651v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) with extended context windows enable powerful applications but impose significant memory overhead, as caching all key-value (KV) states scales linearly with sequence length and batch size.
