SummaryA pull request to a llama.cpp fork proposing block KV cache streaming backed by a shared CUDA phase arena, intended to cap VRAM consumption when running models at long context lengths on NVIDIA GPUs.
Why it mattersConcrete CUDA memory-management patch for local-LLM users hitting VRAM ceilings at long context. Narrow audience but directly addresses a recurring bottleneck.
