That’s a fair question and I’m not an ImageMosaic expert (yet) either. But my
understanding is that the ImageMosaic only accesses the image tiles needed for
the given map extent. You need to create an index shapefile which points the
images to their corresponding locations.
Perhaps some of our resident experts can provide more detail on how to set it
up.

Is there no performance hit if the ImageMosaic ends up being several GBs in
size?

Hi Ben,
You should use an ImageMosaic for this.

I have >100,000 imagery files I would like to serve using GeoServer and would
like to know the recommended way for serving these files? I tried to just
import them all individually as files in a directory, but the GeoServer
start-up time was over 2hrs!! I also tried to create an image pyramid from the
files but could not get GeoServer to import the ImagePyramid as described in
the documentation because it would not take the ImagePyramid directory as valid
input because it wanted a file.
So what would be you guys recommended way for serving up very large data sets?
Should I be using a database?
Thanks in advance!
