Near-optimal KV cache quantization for LLM inference — sub-byte compression.

Name

aitherkvcache — Near-optimal KV cache quantization for LLM inference — sub-byte compression.

The problem it solves

KV cache, not weights, is what runs a GPU out of room during real serving, and it grows with every token of every concurrent request.

Instead of trusting / you check

instead of trusting
a vendor's quantisation defaults
you check
sub-byte KV cache kernels you can benchmark yourself

Adopt it alone

Quantize the cache on one model you already serve and measure the headroom.

Install

install
pip install aither-kvcache

It also judges whether the runner pool is big enough for the queue it is draining, and can ask a host to grow it -- reserving capacity is zero-sum, so a saturated pool needs more of it, not a different share of it.

The ecosystem this belongs to

Every Aitherium repository publishes an aither-manifest.json beside its page, and each surface reads all of them — so the network is browsable from any node in it.
