Here is a little cleaner version. It takes about a second to run on my

path = 'DonQuixote.txt'
frequency = {}
for line in open(path):
for word in line.split():
if frequency.has_key(word):
frequency[word] += 1
else:
frequency[word] = 1
print len(frequency), 'words'

the line of your example raise another question: opened file will be read at
once time, as method readlines() do, or it will be read line by line as method
readline() do.
as far i know, it is depends on implementation of method "__iter__" of the object that
"open()" returns, so another question: where i can find such an information (about how
does such a functions works)?
