Grouped Query Attention (GQA) became popular as a cost-effective replacement for classic multi-head attention (MHA), offering significant savings in key-value cache storage without major implementation changes. By reducing the number of key-value heads and sharing them across multiple query heads, GQA balances modeling quality with efficiency, making it particularly useful for longer sequence lengths. This approach is especially beneficial for labs aiming to reduce costs while maintaining model performance, positioning GQA as a new standard in large language models (LLMs).
