Streaming KV Cache Accelerates Inference
AIFlow_ML · x · 2026-07-13
The author shares a method from exolabs: the KV cache is transmitted immediately after each transformer layer computes, overlapping communication with computation to hide network latency.
Regarding the results, they claim this streaming approach achieves a 4x speedup in prefill and a 3x speedup in decode, with no visible impact from network latency.
