Nautilus reads an existing iso and writes it to the CD. No temp space
is needed.
However, when burning files to CD using burn:/// it creates the
filesystem image first and that is stored in /tmp. Thus you need
adequate free space in /tmp to hold the amount required for the CD being
created. I usually have at least a gb in /tmp so space is not an issue
for me.
