Towards Efficient Large Language Model Serving: A Survey on System-Aware KV Cache Optimization

Despite the rapid advancements of large language models (LLMs), LLM serving systems remain memory-intensive and costly. The key-value (KV) cache, which stores KV tensors during autoregressive decoding, is crucial for enabling low-latency, high-through
