Abstract
A processing device in a memory system assigns a memory page to a sensitivity tier of a plurality of sensitivity tiers. The processing device determines respective scan intervals for the plurality of sensitivity tiers, wherein the respective scan intervals are based on at least one characteristic of a memory device, the at least one characteristic comprising memory cell margins of the memory device. The processing device scans a subset of a plurality of memory pages, wherein the subset comprises a number of memory pages from each sensitivity tier identified according to the respective scan intervals.
