It's entirely possible that (a) the server is stopping and restarting,

This will NOT single thread the call, but if you are just setting up a

The whole point of putting variables into the application scope is to cache
them so you don't have to set them on every request.
The reason your variables didn't get set after you added new ones was that
your application had already started; OnApplicationStart doesn't run on
every request
You can just call onApplicationStart() again, but be aware that it won't be
thread safe as it is when the application starts up.
