any fast PRINSEQ alternative?

Hi all, I'm writing a C++ version of PRINSEQ to filter and trim fastq files and I want to do some timing/memory usage comparison with other sequencing QC tools. Is there any tool beside FastQC, Fastx toolkit and the perl version of PRISEQ that I should include?

Thanks a lot

Have a look at fastp

bbduk.sh from BBMap suite. Java but multi-threaded and plenty fast for me.
