UnverifiedDeepSeek V4.1 Flash reduces per-token storage from 3,500 bytes in the previous generation to approximately 890 bytes through KV cache inter-layer alternation and reuse optimization.77% similarUnverifiedDeepSeek 4.1 Flash consumes a large number of tokens, and the cost advantage brought by its small KV cache is partially offset by the high token consumption.75% similarUnverifiedAs the context length increases, the rate of memory usage growth for V4.1 Flash becomes increasingly gradual, allowing it to support longer input windows with fewer resources.72% similarUnverifiedFlash-type models typically reduce inference latency by 50-80%, lower API call costs by 60-90%, and maintain context windows in the range of 32K-128K tokens.71% similarUnverifiedReal-world testing with the 284-billion-parameter DeepSeek V4 Flash shows token generation rising from 37 to 53 tokens/s (approximately 1.5x), and Prompt Processing jumping from 483 to 1,485 tokens/s (approximately three times).70% similar
