Look at sharing mode in CSV Dataset config which describes how each thread would get data from the file. However when you have mutliple CSV files then it depends on whether rows are interrelated , independent and/or mutually exclusive and I cant make out from your example -- it looks like they should be mutually exclusive for a thread? is that correct?
