That would, of course, have you back on a file per user, but I suspect the performance would benefit as well as it would be a simplier approach for you to deal with. Maybe store an array ga< UserLoginID > with all the stuff you need for those grids.

I just suggested you put reading the file in a time limited loop, in case the file is used by someone else. That will solve the problem. Guard yourself from that, and you'll be fine.
