Starting with GeoServer 2.1.1 the code path to ask for a raster layer stand
alone, and ask for a group of layers have been
completely separated.
This has been done for performance and scalability concerns, when a single
raster is asked GeoServer can work in "image server" mode
instead of "map server" mode, the former is definitely faster.

I guess we made improvements to the image server mode that were not ported
back to the classic map server mode.
Do you have an example data set with styles that we can use to reproduce the
issue?
By your description it seems the raster is not the typical aerial/satellite
imagery, nor scientific data, but sounds more like
a scanned map?

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
