LongRunning shouldn't run more than once

Describe the bug My goal here is to cache some long running process data and then upon expiration, i will get those data that going to expired and append new delta changes from database The long running process shouldn't run more than one time

To Reproduce I will attach the console program that i wrote to reproduce the issue

When i set int parallelNumber = 100; // 100 or below => All the thing run as EXPECTED

When i set int parallelNumber = 300; // 300 or allow => Long process called more than once .. [NOT OK]

Expected behavior Long process should call ONE even the parallel count set to 300 above
