I thought this competition sounded fun, so I gave it a shot. The
following is a 2-threaded program that overlaps reads and
computation. I had to use boost::thread for this, but this should all
be doable in C++0x -- but I'll let you be the final judge of whether
it's an acceptable entry. As many pointed out, the problem is I/O
bound, so that's what I tackled first.
The computation part is nearly identical to Chris' code, I could not
beat the simple accumulate-into-256-wide-table. So cheers for finding
the best solution there :-)
FYI timings on my machine were:
Read the entire 280MB file, do no processing : 0.25 seconds
Chris' program : 0.6 seconds
This program : 0.4 seconds

/// This program counts plain ol' alphabet characters' frequency in a
text file.
/// Text file's encoding is assumed to be a superset of ASCII
/// (for example SHIFT-JIS or UTF-8 would work).

/*
CStopWatch s;
s.startTimer();
The_Stuff_You_Want_To_Time_Executes_Here();
s.stopTimer();
You may then get the elapsed time in seconds
via the method getElapsedTime.
