I am not able to reproduce this. The server is answering and serving
./slowloris.pl -dns doma.in -port 80 -timeout 2 -num 10000
The load is zero, there is not even a delay in the response time. Would you
mind to share your slowloris.pl command and/or the nginx relevant config, OS
type and version, sysctl.conf(or equivalent).
It would be also nice to know what the nginx is doing in that time, do you
have dtrace on that node? Enable debug level logging in nginx is a really
bad idea if you have 5000 requests...
*"But if you have enough attack computers, you also can make a Nginx server
deny service."*

If you have enough computer you can take down even google.com, this is not
relevant to this conversation, moreover the slowloris is a dedicated tool to
low bandwith/low amount of computers attacks.
