arXiv:2606. 24957v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While speculative decoding improves inference throughput for multi-batch long-context Large Language Models (LLMs), its efficiency is often limited by a verification bottleneck where Key-Value (KV) cache loading dominates latency.

CompKV introduces a compensation‑aware sparse attention framework for long‑context LLM inference. It partitions tokens into blocks and optimizes token selection to minimize the error introduced by block‑level mean compensation, using compact block‑level statistics. Experiments on RULER and LongBench‑Pro show CompKV outperforms other sparse baselines and achieves up to a 6.85× speedup over full attention.

arXiv:2608. 01651v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hybrid-attention large language models combine full attention with recurrent linear attention to reduce long-context inference costs, yet their autoregressive decoding remains memory-bound.

arXiv:2606. 01019v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) generation remains expensive because autoregressive decoding calls the model once for each new token.
