I will take a guess that this is being invoked with a `tput init`.
If there is some non-printing & non-control character which could
be amassed in a file, you could assign the "rf", (r)eset (f)ile,
string in a new terminfo file like this: "rf=/usr/bin/my_dummy_data".
Place as many characters in there as is necessary to produce the delay.
If it is defined, the "rf" named file's contents get sent to the terminal
during an initialization, right after the "rs2" string is processed.

Alternately, you could move the completed escape sequence that is defined
by "rs1" to a commands file. Then define the file name in the terminfo
entry using the "iprog" capability. "iprog" is a way for terminfo to
call an executable to do specialized terminal setup commands. This could
be a 'C' or shell program. In the initialization program, one could send
out the appropriate escape sequences, interspersed with sleeps for whatever
duration necessary. Remember that this program is the first capability
that is expressed when `tput init` is called, so you may want to change
or re-arrange the other initialization strings (is1, is2, if, is3, rs1,
rs2, rf, and rs3). If you need more information, look in the Programmer's
Reference Manual at terminfo(4). It could prove illuminating.
