Long-context language model inference is bottlenecked by memory, as the KV cache grows with context length. Recent techniques to compress the KV cache fall short: they either degrade model quality substantially or require considerable time and compute to compress a single long prompt.

Abstract: As the context size of text processed with an LLM grows, the size of KV caches can outstrip the memory allocated for the original model weights. This i...

arXiv:2607. 06519v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context LLM inference is increasingly limited by the memory and bandwidth cost of KV caches, yet aggressive compression can remove the layer-specific evidence needed for retrieval and multi-step reasoning.
