    Is there any reason to not store the calculated results in a DB, or in a file somewhere your web app can get to it? It sounds like once they are calculated, there's no need to recalculate them. But please absolutely do not implement a task scheduler running under Asp.Net.. Commented Jun 25, 2017 at 21:15
  • just load it in app start Commented Jun 26, 2017 at 8:08
  • @Andy it's the loading of the files that takes so long, and if I have my web app get to the files I then couple quite tightly the class library of my colleague's work and the web app which I really don't want to do Commented Jun 26, 2017 at 9:21
  • @SimonNicholls You said your coworker produces some data from the loaded file; my question is why not save your coworkers calculations in a separate file or database, and just display it? Commented Jun 26, 2017 at 21:54
  • @Andy ah I see yeah sorry the calculations need to be done on the fly, there could be any number of combinations of inputs that change what the outputs would be so storing them is not viable Commented Jun 27, 2017 at 9:07
