Fast processing of fastq data
Knowing a high-performance language will make a huge difference here. See the example below in C. I haven't tested, but it should be easy to modify for your purpose.
C++, Rust, Go, Nim and Julia can ...

"Sequence Duplication Levels" module still fails after pre-processing Illumina data
To answer your direct question, there are a few reasons why there might be high levels of sequence duplication. From the FastQC help:

"Sequence Duplication Levels" module still fails after pre-processing Illumina data
FastQC assumes that all samples are for whole genome sequencing and will flag them as failed if they differ too much from that assumption. This will, for example, cause essentially all RNA-seq, ChIP-...

Is there a read mapper that allows input in SAM format instead of FASTA/FASTQ?
With bwa-mem or minimap2, the recommended way is
samtools fastq -T BC,RX name-grouped.sam | bwa mem -C -p -

Is there a read mapper that allows input in SAM format instead of FASTA/FASTQ?
The common solution for scRNA-seq is to put cell barcodes and such in read headers and then post-process things with UMItools.
But regarding your actual question, STAR can accept SAM/BAM as input ...

Appropriate value to replace outliers in clinical studies
In my experience, it is more common to use all clinical data as-is for clinical studies. And if data is missing, either omit the sample or omit the variable with missing data.
