NVFP4 KV cache quantization reduces memory footprint by 50% compared to FP8, enabling larger batch sizes and longer context windows on NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs. The 4-bit quantization format delivers up to 3x better time-to-first-token latency through higher cache-hit rates while maintaining less than 1% accuracy loss across code
