GUIs are just front ends for these CLI programs, so any GUI will be slower
and take more resources than a plain command. If your GUI uses lame, it
will be basically running exactly the same commands you would run from the
command line, but with more overhead, inevitably.

It's really a question of what you feel comfortable with. If the CLI
scares you, use a GUI :-) Sometimes it's just easier to click than to type
- but really it depends on your preferences, and whether you like to learn
about what is really happening, under the pretty point and click 
pictures ;-)
