AbstractMemory required to perform a computational task is one of the most fundamental measures used by theoretical computer scientists to assess how difficult a task is. Nevertheless, in practice, memory optimization received limited attention until the emergence of big data applications. More recently, the rapid growth of large-scale machine learning (ML) systems, including large language models (LLMs), has pushed model parameter counts far beyond improvements in memory hardware, raising concerns that
