sqzlib - kseq compatible DNA fastA/Q encoding and compression library
Most importantly, sqzlib is fully compatible with klib/kseq.h one of the highest performance fastA/Q parsers. This means that any application that uses kseq.h for fastA/Q parsing, can be easily modified to use sqzlib instead. You can find patched versions of seqstats, minimap2, and bwa-mem2 in my github, or you can patch them yourself with the included patches.

Anyone use DRAGEN-GATK?
If you haven’t heard of it already you may want to check out https://github.com/bwa-mem2/bwa-mem2 which is a faster version of bwa-mem. I’ve been using it for a while now and found it to be quite stable, same results as the original and the speed improvement is nice.

Software Development Project
I’ve recently switched to bwa mem2 and the speed increase is nice for what is basically a drop in replacement (after a bit of validation to make sure that was true). https://github.com/bwa-mem2/bwa-mem2
What are some alternatives?
When comparing seqstats and bwa-mem2 you can also consider the following projects:
bwa-mem2 - The next version of bwa-mem
minimap2 - A versatile pairwise aligner for genomic and spliced nucleotide sequences
sqzlib - Blocked bases fastX encoding and compression
htslib - C library for high-throughput sequencing data formats
edlib - Lightweight, super fast C/C++ (& Python) library for sequence alignment using edit (Levenshtein) distance.
