Abstract
System and methods are disclosed include a memory device and a processing device coupled to the memory device. The processing device can determine an amount of valid blocks in a memory device of a memory sub-system. The processing device can then determine a surplus amount of valid blocks on the memory device based on the amount of valid blocks. The processing device can then configure a size of a cache of the memory device based on the surplus amount of valid blocks.
