Reproducing agentic KV-cache policy claims on real traces. 68k requests from 393 Claude Code sessions. LRU is harder to beat than the papers suggest.

About the project

A prefix-cache simulator for LLM serving that replays real Claude Code and Mooncake traces to test whether published policies beat LRU. The author finds LRU is harder to beat than the papers claim.

Useful for
  • Test your own KV-cache eviction policy on real agent-session traces
  • Reproduce Mooncake's published hit-rate-vs-capacity curve
  • Measure how much recompute comes from capacity pressure rather than TTL

0.1 Quiet Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of September 27, 2026, 13:34 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

01020September 10, 2026October 29, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • The repository is 17 days old and already has 23 stars.
  • Hacker News: “LRU is harder to beat than the KV-cache papers suggest” — 108 points, 16 days ago.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

The full 7-day window is unavailable; no weekly total or comparison is calculated.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
