We analyze the algorithm under two operating modes. First, we show that the Exact Mode matches the best-known theoretical guarantees for shuffling variance-reduced methods in both strongly convex and non-convex settings. Second, to address large-scale regimes, we introduce an Inexact Mode that utilizes mini-batch estimators. A key contribution of our work is proving that this Inexact Mode achieves a total complexity independent of the dataset size, making it significantly more scalable than existing shuffling methods when the sample size is large.
