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 including applying an ordered set of error-handling operations to be performed on data residing in a segment of the memory device as an input to a trained machine learning model, wherein the trained machine learning model is based on latency data for previously-performed error-handling operations; and obtaining an output of the trained machine learning model, the output comprising a reordered set of error-handling operations to be performed on the data residing in the segment of the memory device, and wherein the reordered set adjusts an order of one or more error-handling operations of the ordered set of error-handling operations.
