KV Cache Offloading for Context-Intensive Tasks

arXiv:2604.08426v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: With the growing demand for long-context LLMs across a wide range of applications, the key-value (KV) cache has become a critical bottleneck for both latency and memory usage. Recently, KV-cache offloading has emerged as a promising approach to reduce memory footprint and inference latency while preserving accuracy. Prior evaluations have largely focused on tasks that do not require extracting large amounts of information from the context
