opencv_world.dll - how to use .lib ?

I compiled opencv from source using cmake gui and visual studio and selected the option to create the opencv_world files. When I run my code it tells me that opencv_world300.dll is missing and so I put it in my project folder. Will my code run slower because I am using a .dll file instead of a .lib file ? I am building a real-time application so it is important that I do not use settings or files that make my code run slower.

Should I reinstall OpenCV and not select the opencv_world option ? Because when I did that long ago it never gives me any missing dll errors.
