The speed of ANY converter depends on the quality of the MP3 you want it to
produce. Set it to a low bitrate and low quality and it will be
exceptionally fast, but I assume this will not be acceptable to you.

You will probably find that most of the various GUI convertor programs are
either calling lame to to the work, or use the lame library to perform the
conversion. As such, whether you use a GUI based product or use the lame
command line, you'll get the same processing speed if you ask for the same
level of audio compression.

Why don't you fire up your package manager, install a few MP3
converter/compressors and try out the GUI's until you find one you like?

Your question is the equivalent of asking "Which is the nicest colour?".
