Hi eting, I have a short experience with ImageMosaic datastores. I think you might be interested.
We have an installation with approximately 14000 GeoTiffs (and growing) organized into several Image Mosaic layers. The starting time is just a minute or two and geoserver is able to serve them smoothly (no noticeable difference to individual GeoTiff layers). We serve multidimensional meteorological datasets (forecasts with time, forecast hour and sometimes ensemble dimensions) so it makes a lot of sense to use Image Mosaic datastores. For example we are able to iterate over all forecasts for a given runtime of a meteorological model.
