Abstract

According to one embodiment, when a command being executed in a nonvolatile memory is an erase/program command and either a first condition or a second condition is satisfied, a memory system suspends an execution of the erase/program command by transmitting a suspend command to the nonvolatile memory. The first condition is that either the number of read commands included in the first command group or a sum of weights associated with the read commands is equal to or greater than a first value. The second condition is that one or more read commands are included in the first command group and a time elapsed from when an execution of the erase/program command is started or resumed becomes equal to or greater than a second value.
