Here's something you could try until a better solution is worked out:
Currently, you can add multiple threadgroups to a testplan. So, create 3
threadgroups, each with 100 threads. The first threadgroup represents your
test 1 set. The next is test2, etc. For threadgroup 2, you need to add some
meaningless test cases at the beginning, under a OnceOnly controller, that
will take about 3 seconds to complete. For threadgroup 3, do the same, but
it needs to take 6 seconds for the meaningless activity.
I hope I've interpreted what you're trying to do correctly. After reading
what you wrote again, I wonder if maybe you wanted to stagger-start every
thread, not just in three groups of 100?
Also, you do know about the Timers, right? They allow you to add a delay
between each thread's samples. I didn't mention them earlier since they
don't seem appropriate for what I think you're trying to do.
