arXiv:2606. 04302v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Key-value (KV) caching accelerates inference of large language models (LLMs) by reusing past computations for generated tokens.
arXiv:2608. 07458v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent optimization studies on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) have exploited chunk-level KV cache reuse to avoid processing long retrieved contexts for higher efficiency, while significant information redundancy and noise still remain in the coarse-grained chunks.
arXiv:2606. 26875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reasoning capability has advanced rapidly in large language models (LLMs), leading to an increasing size of key-value (KV) cache in both prefilling and decoding stages.
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) improves large language model (LLM) answer quality by grounding generation in external evidence, but processing retrieved contexts makes the prefill stage a dominant serving cost. RAG cache fusion reduces this cost by reusing precomputed key-value (KV) caches for retrieved chunks and selectively recomputing tokens under the current prompt.
arXiv:2608. 03276v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context inference with large language models is constrained by the linear growth of the key-value cache to sequence length.
arXiv:2607. 01237v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reasoning language models often generate long chain-of-thought (CoT), which accumulates a massive KV cache during the decoding phase and incurs high decoding latency and limited throughput.
