Summary
KIV (K-Indexed V Materialization) is a new middleware layer for HuggingFace transformers that replaces the standard KV cache with a tiered retrieval system. This innovation enables models to achieve a massive 1M token context window on consumer GPUs like the RTX 4070 (12GB VRAM) without requiring any retraining. By intelligently managing K/V tokens between VRAM and system RAM, KIV significantly expands the practical context limits for large language models, making advanced capabilities more accessible.
