Well - it will depend on what sort of temperatures you are talking about. Also, what is the adhesive?  Is it just a polymer emulsion with some filler and thickners in it?  In general, you would expect the adhesive to dry quicker at higher temps. Depending upon how high a temperature you are talking about, the finished/cured-off dry adhesive may soften at higher temps.  Of course if the temp is high enough it may degrade or burn even. Can you give us a it more info?
