Nice work, although it is a bit slow: (avg 5 seconds per address parsing) date && perl geo.pl && date Sat Dec 29 16:18:30 UTC 2018 country => united kingdom su

  It seems to have a whole lot of data that would probably need to be loaded. Maybe a lot of that time is spent in initialization. Is it faster at parsing a second, third, etc. address once loaded? By the way, a more convenient way to benchmark Perl: perl -MBenchmark -e 'timethis(500, sub { ... your code here ... });'
