Abstract: The generic bound of quantum speed limit time (the minimal evolution time) for a qubit system interacting with structural environment is investigated. We define a new bound for the quantum speed limit. It is shown that the non-Markovianity and the population of the excited state can fail to signal the quantum evolution acceleration, but the initial-state dependence is an important factor. In particular, we find that different quantum speed limits could produce contradictory predictions on the quantum evolution acceleration.
