Thanks for this great list! We’d love to add CacheCraft —a chunk-aware KV reuse approach for RAG that minimizes redundant computation while preserving generation quality. Our work is concurrent to CacheBlend, with key differences in chunk-level reuse, selective recompute planning, and optimizations designed for real-world production systems. CacheCraft is accepted at SIGMOD 2025.

We’re also open-sourcing a vLLM-based extension soon. Results on real RAG traces show strong efficiency gains in production. Recent works like CacheFocus and EPIC further build on related ideas, highlighting the growing relevance of this research direction.
