Techniques are described herein for performing a flush operation for a write booster buffer of a memory system. The flush operation may include swapping valid blocks in the write booster buffer for invalid blocks in a storage space of the memory system. After swapping the blocks, the memory system may transfer the information from a first type of blocks that were formerly assigned to the write booster buffer to a second type of blocks in the storage space. In such a flush operation, space is made available in the write booster buffer with less latency than it would take to transfer information between blocks, thereby improving the performance of the write booster mode.
