I haven’t created overviews or tiled the tiffs as I thought caching would 
provide adequate performance.

Creating overviews is not just about performance, it's also about quality.
When creating overviews each level is computed as a summary of the previous 
one, so each
pxiel in the overviews is a summary of all pixels of the original image.
When not creating them, the scaling algorithm does not go to read all original 
pixels, it does
subsampling, reading 1 pixel every 1 to get closer to the requested resolution. 
 Trying to get
the same quality as with overviews would imply a massive overhead, reading all 
pixels
and then doing repeated "scale by half" operations until reaching the desired 
resolution.

So... add overviews.

Cheers
Andrea
