We study stochastic multi-armed bandits under simultaneous constraints on space and adaptivity: the learner interacts with the environment in $B$ batches and has only $W$ bits of persistent memory. Prior work shows that each constraint alone is surprisingly mild: near-minimax regret $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{KT})$ is achievable with $O(\log T)$ bits of memory under fully adaptive interaction, and with a $K$-independent $O(\log\log T)$-type number of batches when memory is unrestricted. We show that this picture breaks down in the simultaneously constrained regime. We prove that any algorithm with a $W$-bit memory constraint must use at least $Ω(K/W)$ batches to achieve near-minimax regret $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{KT})$, even under adaptive grids. In particular, logarithmic memory rules out $O(K^{1-\varepsilon})$ batch complexity. Our proof is based on an information bottleneck. We show that near-minimax regret forces the learner to acquire $Ω(K)$ bits of information about the hidden set of good arms under a suitable hard prior, whereas an algorithm with $B$ batches and $W$ bits of memory allows only $O(BW)$ bits of information. A key ingredient is a localized change-of-measure lemma that yields probability-level arm exploration guarantees, which is of independent interest. We also give an algorithm that, for any bit budget $W$ with $Ω(\log T) \le W \le O(K\log T)$, uses at most $W$ bits of memory and $\widetilde{O}(K/W)$ batches while achieving regret $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{KT})$, nearly matching our lower bound up to polylogarithmic factors.

In particular, V oicebox outperforms the state-of-the-art zero-shot TTS model V ALL-E on both intelligibility (5.9% vs 1.9% word error rates) and audio similarity (0.580 vs 0.681) while being up to 20 times faster.
