Abstract

A processing device of a memory sub-system performs an operation including obtaining, at a first time, a first scaling factor for a data unit of a set of data units of a memory device. The first scaling factor is associated with a first number of write operations performed at the data unit and a first number of read operations performed at the data unit. The processing device also performs an operation including calculating a first media management metric based on at least the first scaling factor, the first number of write operations, and the first number of read operations. In response to determining that the first media management metric satisfies a media management criterion, the processing device performs a media management operation on the data unit.
