What papers say

Verbatim critique sentences, each from a paper that cites Host CPU decompression as a baseline.

“Offloading decompression to the host CPUs seems like a feasible workaround, but host CPUs in serving clusters are already burdened with other tasks like vector search and data preprocessing, and they are inefficient at a variety of decompression algorithms.”
