Verification: official_abstract; confidence=high.
Question: How can multi-turn LLM services reuse prior-turn KV state without consuming scarce GPU memory?
Context: Recomputing the conversation prefix wastes prefill work; retaining every KV cache on GPU limits concurrency.
Method: CachedAttention stores KV state hierarchically, preloads and saves it layer by layer, coordinates fetch/eviction with scheduling, and decouples position encoding from truncation.
Evaluation: workloads=multi-turn LLM conversations; baselines=recompute and GPU-resident KV-cache serving; metrics=TTFT; prefill throughput; end-to-end cost; results=up to 87% lower TTFT; up to 7.8x prefill throughput; up to 70% lower cost
Interpretation: KV persistence is effective when storage movement is overlapped at layer granularity and made scheduler-visible.
Reusable lesson: Persist reusable intermediate state below the accelerator and pipeline its movement with computation.
Applicability: Multi-turn chatbot and agent services with repeated conversation prefixes.
Limits: Benefits depend on prefix reuse, storage bandwidth/capacity, context truncation, and scheduler locality.
