contents With reasoning becoming the generative paradigm for large language models (LLMs), the memory bottleneck caused by KV cache during the decoding phase has become a critical factor limiting high-concurrency service. Although existing KV cache eviction methods address the memory issue, most of them are impractical for industrial-grade applications. This paper introduces Compressed PagedAttention, a method that combines token-wise KV cache eviction with PagedAttention. We propose a comprehensive scheduling strategy and support prefix caching and asynchronous compression for Compressed PagedAttention. Based on this, we have developed a high-concurrency LLM inference engine, Zipage. On large-scale mathematical reasoning tasks, Zipage achieves around 95\% of the performance of Full KV inference engines while delivering over 2.1$\times$ speedup.
