arXiv:2608. 11249v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the problem of lossless text compression, motivated by the rapid growth in the collection and storage of digital textual data - including plain text, source code, and structured formats such as XML - and by recent advances in neural language model-based compression.

LowRankArena is a standardized evaluation platform for SVD‑based low‑rank compression of large language models, unifying task versions, compression budgets, comparison regimes, and inference measurements. It provides a reproducible pipeline with over 3 TiB of released compressed checkpoints, enabling consistent comparisons across methods. An audit of five representative SVD techniques using LowRankArena shows that prior reported gains are highly conditional, with performance leaders and tiers shifting across backbones and keep ratios, and that nominal low‑rank savings often yield limited end‑to‑end speedups.

arXiv:2604. 02343v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the compression of LLM-generated text across lossless and lossy regimes, characterizing a compression-compute frontier where more compression is possible at the cost of more compute.
