Dolphin doesn't copy ISOs from the Blu-Ray disc to the hard disk automatically when running them, if that's what you were wondering. It reads everything from the Blu-Ray unless the data has gotten cached in RAM (or unless the OS uses the hard disk as a cache, but I don't think it does that).

I don't know if it's going to be fast enough or not. A few people have tried doing it with DVDs, and that has led to slowdown when running games, but I can't remember anyone trying it with Blu-Ray.
