 ### 3. KVCache
 
 KVCache is a technique used to optimize the LLM inference process. It avoids redundant computations by caching the key and value vectors of previous tokens in the decoder layers.
-The top figure demonstrates the read throughput of all KVCache clients, highlighting both peak and average values, with peak throughput reaching up to 40 GiB/s. The bottom figure presents the IOPS of remove ops from garbage collection (GC) during the same time period.
