arXiv:2603.00188v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Training-free KV cache compression is essential for deploying vision-language GUI agents under memory and latency constraints, yet existing methods are designed for generic language workloads and ignore the distinctive structure of GUI interaction traces. We characterize three GUI-specific workload properties--high inter-frame visual redundancy, extremely small UI-element spatial footprints, and near-uniform cross-layer attention sparsity--that cause existing schemes to retain as few as 39% of oracle-important KV pairs at the standard 20% budget. To address this, we propose ST-Lite, a training-free compression scheme whose three components each target one property: Trajectory-aware Semantic Gating (TSG) filters redundant historical frames, Component-centric Spatial Saliency (CSS) preserves fine-grained element boundaries, and a flat per-layer budget avoids hierarchical misallocation. Across seven GUI benchmarks and two backbones in the deployment-relevant 10%-40% window, ST-Lite consistently outperforms all existing compression baselines, matching or exceeding Full Cache task accuracy on the primary backbone at the 20% budget while delivering up to 2.35x decoding speedup at fivefold compression. The implementation is available at https://github.com/94wen94/ST-Lite.
