While your version took 12 seconds for 16MB on my system:

(That was the third run so the cache was primed.)

This version took:

The code;

#! perl -slw
use strict;
use Time::HiRes qw[ time ];

my $start = time;

open I, '<:raw', $ARGV[ 0 ];

my @seen;

while( read( I, my $buf, 16384  ) ) {
    ++$seen[$_] for unpack 'C*', $buf;
}
printf "Took %f secs\n", time() - $start;

printf "%c : %u\n", $_, $seen[$_] for 0 .. 255;

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
