Hello all,

Is there a way to consolidate netcdf files with multiple parameters into a 
single layer?  We have requirements to display large amounts of model data from 
multiple sources.  Currently, this involves one CoverageStore/Layer per unique 
data type.  However this results in thousands of layers which causes the 
GeoServer boot very slowly.  What we'd like to do is create one layer per model 
(GFS/NAM/etc) and use custom dimensions to specify the variable name.  It 
doesn't appear this is currently possible, but I figured I'd check here if I 
was just missing something.  For reference, our data comes in as a single 
variable and time per netcdf file so our database would need to specify the 
correct file and variable name.

Alternatively, if there isn't any way to combine the layers, is there any way 
to optimize the boot time?  We currently have 5000+ layers and our last boot 
took 5673031 ms (~90 minutes).  If anyone has any optimization tips or tricks I 
would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
