Eviction as Estimation: A Fixed-Lag Smoothing View of Test-Time Memory, and When Measuring Beats Accumulating

- What happened
- Researchers propose RMM, a fixed-lag smoothing approach to decide which cached tokens to keep in language models with bounded memory.
- Why it matters
- Matters for engineers optimizing inference on resource-constrained systems where KV cache management directly impacts throughput and latency.
- Watch out
- Method matches existing approaches on standard benchmarks; gains appear only when token reuse is sharp and endogenous, not typical in real workloads.
