Thanks for the link.

So if I have a DTED layer that is made up as 150 .dt1 files that are 2MB each, would I want to merge that into a single GeoTiff for best performance? I also have an RPF folder that is made up of 2,000 .tl1 files that are 300KB each, would I want to make a single GeoTiff for this too?

Right now I have just loaded both of the above folders (DTED & RPF) each as ImageMosaics but I don't think that's the best way after reading the FOSS4G PDF. Anything under 40GB should be converted to a single GeoTiff or BigTiff?

Please advise and let me know if I'm understanding the FOSS4G presentation correctly. Thanks!

    Newbie question here...

    I have a folder of about 100 images segments (RPF) that I need to
    load.
    Right now, I am just making an ImageMosaic with that folder as the
    source.

    Will this provide me with the best performance or is there a
    better way to
    do this when performance is a concern (like combining the images
    into one
    big geotiff before I load them)?


It is hard to say given the lack of detail in your description.
Have a look at this presentation, it contains directions for optimizing raster
data:
