Based on reasonable assumptions, we propose a new expression for Lloyd’s bound, which confines the complexity growth of charged black holes. We then revisit holographic complexity for charged black branes in the presence of a finite cutoff. Using the proposed Lloyd’s bound we find a relation between the UV and the behind the horizon cutoff. This is found to be consistent with the factorization of the partition function at leading order in large . We argue that the result may be thought of as a holographic realization of strong cosmic censorship.
