Long-context large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in real-world applications, yet self-attention remains a major efficiency bottleneck -- especially during decoding -- due to the necessity of repeatedly processing ever-growing key-value (KV) caches. Existing sparse attention reduce computation by attending to fewer KV pairs, but often suffer from substantial accuracy degradation, require additional training, or rely on expensive hashing.

The paper introduces D-Quant, a KV cache quantization framework that addresses the memory bottleneck of large language models by using a drift mechanism to convert entropy-coded representations into fixed-size bitstreams. This approach leverages the non-uniform distribution of KV cache values—after rotation and normalization, they approximate a normal distribution—allowing entropy coding to assign shorter codewords to frequent symbols while maintaining regular memory layouts suitable for parallel attention kernels. D-Quant thus aims to reduce memory footprint and bandwidth usage without sacrificing performance.
