Hi Deepak,

The only reason I have 5 thread groups is that I use them to record their
work with the HTTP Proxy Server. I if a re-arrange them like this:

Test Plan
    - Thread Group
         - Once Only (Log in)
         - Another Controller (Area 1)
         - Another Controller (Area 2)
         - Another Controller (Area 3)
         - Another Controller (Area 4)

And change Number of Threads to 100, Ramp up to X and loop to 1

a) How can I make sure that Log In goes first?
b) Using a Random Order Controller for each Area will may help me with the
random order but what  about percentages?
c) How do you come up with a "good" Ramp up number?

Regards and thanks for your ideas.

Rodolfo
