Systems and methods for precomputing data and storing cache objects corresponding to the precomputed data are described. A system creates a new cache object when a user interacts with the system. The system precomputes formulas in the newly created cache object by replacing the formulas with corresponding calculated values. The system precomputes the formulas in the background (i.e., the user is not presented with the precomputed values while the user is manipulating the data). The system may persistently store a precomputed version cache object in a dedicated version cache storage for later use. If updates are performed to the structure and/or values of a version represented in a precomputed version cache object, effected parts of the version cache object are invalidated by replacing calculated values with the underlying formulas.
