arXiv:2604. 25975v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Key-Value (KV) caching is essential for large language model inference, yet its memory overhead poses a critical bottleneck for long-context generation.

arXiv:2602. 10238v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The growing size of Large Language Models (LLMs) makes efficient inference challenging, primarily due to the memory demands of the autoregressive Key-Value (KV) cache.

arXiv:2608. 12331v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reasoning language models generate lengthy chain-of-thought (CoT) sequences whose key-value (KV) cache grows linearly and becomes a memory bottleneck during decoding.

GrowPage is an on‑demand key–value (KV) budgeting framework designed to improve large language model (LLM) reasoning serving. It treats KV capacity as a runtime resource, using lightweight dual‑timescale query summaries to track recent and long‑term attention patterns and estimate demand evolution. At each capacity boundary, GrowPage either compresses KV states within the current allocation or acquires an additional physical page, integrating with PagedAttention’s page‑level memory abstraction to maintain continuous batching and prefix caching.
