A memory system may implement a read operation including a delay if a channel is at stable state, and may implement a read operation without a delay if the channel is in a transient state. Upon receiving a read command to a set of memory cells sharing the channel, the memory system may determine whether the channel is in a stable or transient state. If the channel is in a stable state, the memory system may perform a read operation including a delay between boosting the channel and driving respective word lines, such that the channel partially discharges prior to driving the word lines. If the channel is in a transient state, the memory system may perform a read operation without a delay between boosting the channel and driving the word lines.
