Abstract

A processing device in a memory sub-system determines a total power-off time of a memory sub-system and identifies a configurable power-off time threshold for the memory sub-system. The processing device determines whether the total power-off time satisfies a threshold criterion based on the configurable power-off time threshold, responsive to determining that the total power-off time satisfies the threshold criterion, causes the memory sub-system to enter a relaxed block retirement mode of operation.
