US Patent 11301143 Selective accelerated sampling of failure-sensitive memory pages

A processing device in a memory system determines sensitivity value of a memory page in the memory system. The processing device assigns the memory page to a sensitivity tier of a plurality of sensitivity tiers based on a corresponding sensitivity value, wherein each sensitivity tier has a corresponding range of sensitivity values. The processing device further determines a targeted scan interval for each sensitivity tier of the plurality of sensitivity tiers and scans a subset of a plurality of memory pages in the memory component, wherein the subset comprises a number of memory pages from each sensitivity tier determined according to the corresponding targeted scan interval of each sensitivity tier.
