arXiv:2606. 24033v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing low-bit KV-cache quantizers often treat each cached key as a flat vector.

arXiv:2608. 08081v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large mixture-of-experts (MoE) language models with 26--120 billion parameters exceed the memory capacity of consumer devices through three simultaneous pressures: resident weight matrices, key-value (KV) cache state that grows linearly with context, and dozens of expert sublayers that must be paged on demand.

arXiv:2607. 00760v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context LLM services now sustain prompts with hundreds of thousands to millions of tokens, making the key-value (KV) cache a first-order serving cost.

arXiv:2604. 26968v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Key-value (KV) cache memory management is the primary bottleneck limiting throughput and cost-efficiency in large-scale GPU inference serving.

arXiv:2606. 02964v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) inference relies on key-value (KV) caches to avoid redundant attention computation.

arXiv:2606. 13126v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-augmented and agentic workloads repeatedly prefill recurring predictable structured inputs (which we call "spans") such as documents and code files.
