Shopify's "Gisting" technique compresses lengthy system prompts into learned tokens to significantly reduce inference latency and GPU costs without altering core model weights. By minimizing context size through a two-step training process, this approach directly addresses the efficiency challenges inherent in scaling large language models for production environments.

Shopify's engineering introduced Gisting, a novel technique for compressing long LLM prompts into a smaller set of learned "gist" tokens, improving throughput and reducing inference cost. Spotify emphasizes that replacing lengthy text for concise gist tokens at inference time reduces end-to-end latency, drops infrastructure costs, and boosts token throughput without modifying the model's core weights. The company says that…
