Open-Source Cache Layer Enables Faster, Cheaper Inference

The post introduces LMCache: an open-source KV cache management layer that integrates with vLLM, SGLang, and TensorRT-LLM to reuse repeated contexts and reduce inference overhead.
The repost claims this cache architecture can speed up LLM inference by up to 14 times and reduce input token costs by 90%. The original text also explains how it avoids repeatedly reading system prompts and documents in agent workloads.
