I think JENKINS-26052 <https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-26052>
would be a natural solution for this. parallel() has a different emphasis
from yours.
I also thought about building a library on top of workflow that lets you
declare tasks with dependencies and have the library figure out what to
execute in what order (including parallelism), which might work well for
this, too. The idea is something like the following:
task(name:"foo") {
// whatever computation you fancy
sh '...'
}
task(name:"bar", depends:["foo"]) {
...
}
task(name:"zot", depends:["foo"]) {
...
}
attain "zot" // foo runs, then bar+zot runs in parallel
