Here a variation of my former code which allows to calculate a range of n-grams simultaneously.

Please note that instead of printing "$n:" you could also push to an @array or print to a filehandle.

The filehandle or arrayref or whatever target stream could be held in a hash $ngrams{$n} ....

... this should be among the fastest solutions ¹

Also it's easy to change this from range to list of n-grams, just keep $n_max right.

HTH

use strict;
use warnings;

my @cache;
my $n_min=2;
my $n_max=6;


while (my $line =<DATA>) {
    chomp $line;
    push @cache, $line;
    for my $n ($n_min..$n_max) {
        print "$n: @cache[-$n .. -1]\n"   # last n of cache
            if @cache >= $n;
    }
    shift @cache if @cache == $n_max;     # keep cache at max size
}

¹) well you could have a sliding window and a regex to be even faster ;)

update

simplified range code from @cache-$n ..$#cache to -$n .. -1
