alt Hacker NewsI'm unsure of the sizes needed for prompt cache, but I suspect its several gigs in size (A percentage of the model weight size), how would the user upload this every time they started a resumed a old idle session, also are they going to save /every/ session you do this with?

A few gigs of disk is not that expensive. Imo they should allocate every paying user (at least) one disk cache slot that doesn't expire after any time. Use it for their most recent long chat (a very short question-answer that could easily be replayed shouldn't evict a long convo).

They could let you nominate an S3 bucket (or Azure/GCP/etc equivalent). Instead of dropping data from the cache, they encrypt it and save it to the bucket; on a cache miss they check the bucket and try to reload from it. You pay for the bucket; you control the expiry time for it; if it costs too much you just turn it off.
