Hi Tom,
Good questions:

It is a single file and should be loaded as such. So just "add geotiff" on
the stores.

I've not done a performance comparison but it's more than fast enough for
my purposes.

Again, I've not done a comparison.

It doesn't unless you want it to. You can make WMS requests to this image
and it'll work just fine responding to them in a nice timely fashion. If
you want to parse the requests through GWC instead of straight through GWC
you can, but that's a separate thing from the data source.
If you're really concerned about speed (and have a LOT of visitors), then
you can serve it as a TMS/WMTS. Those are optimal for basemaps.
Cheers,
Jonathan
