Yes, there must be something decreasing the performance of the drive, otherwise why would multi-plats like GTA4 require an installation on the PS3 and not 360?
It's a 360 centric game like nearly all multi-platform games currently. The game is optimised for the 360's DVD drive (CD and DVD have been optimised for for ages, Blu-Ray is new technology), bringing that onto the PS3 Blu-Ray drive without major adaptations to the loading routines would cause problems. Read the link earlier within this thread.
BTW, having an equal amount of data on a dual layer DVD, PS3 drive seek times are actually better as well.
