Abstract

A method of operation in a non-volatile memory system for deferring, in accordance with a determination to reduce power consumption by the non-volatile memory system, execution of commands in a command queue corresponding to a distinct set of non-volatile memory devices during a respective wait period. In some implementations, the respective wait period for a first distinct set of non-volatile memory devices in at least two distinct sets is at least partially non-overlapping with the respective wait period for a second distinct set of non-volatile memory devices in the at least two distinct sets.
