Original Abstract Submitted

systems and methods are disclosed including a memory device and a processing device operatively coupled to the memory device. the processing device can perform operations comprising receiving, from a host system, a memory access command; responsive to determining that the memory access command is a program command, incrementing a consecutive counter value; determining whether the consecutive counter value satisfies a threshold criterion; responsive to determining that the consecutive counter value satisfies a threshold criterion, and setting an initial polling timer to a value associated the consecutive counter value satisfying the threshold criterion.
