VerifiedThe autoregressive generation process of reasoning models is strictly sequential; KV Cache VRAM usage grows linearly with the length of the thinking token sequence, making memory bandwidth the performance bottleneck.77% similarUnverifiedAutoregressive models use KV Cache to cache the Key and Value matrices of historical tokens, with memory usage growing linearly with sequence length.71% similarUnverifiedDuring inference, each token requires maintaining a KV cache (Key-Value cache), whose GPU memory usage is proportional to sequence length and the number of model layers.70% similarUnverified推测解码技术通过小模型预测草稿、大模型验证的方式加速生成，KV Cache共享机制降低重复请求的计算冗余68% similarUnverifiedThe prefill stage is compute-bound, requiring all input tokens to be processed at once to generate the KV Cache, with attention matrix computation complexity of O(n²).68% similar
