Description
### Motivation
LMDeploy has incredible throughput on smaller GPU's, it far outperforms VLLM with a much simpler setup (IMO).
Because of this it is a favourite for smaller GPU's, the kind of GPU's where offloading of KV Cache to CPU / NVMe would be beneficial.
Supporing LMCache would be great for this (and the name matches!)
https://docs.lmcache.ai/
VLLM and other inference servers already support this (or have implemented their own).
Can we get this added?
