  "summary": "We present the PACE, a framework for retrieval-augmented dialogue serving that formalizes Perceived Time-to-First-Response (PTFR) as a QoE objective and minimizes it under quality/cost constraints. Unlike prior work on cascaded routing, semantic caching, or adaptive retrieval, PACE jointly controls which answer source composes the response and what fills the waiting window. Deployed on a…",
