Turned out slowhttptest is being used not only by admins;) . Imperva's DoS Trends Report says:
During the last week of March 2012 and the beginning of April 2012, we observed a DoS attack on Patriarchia, the official site of the Moscow Patriarchate – the Russian Orthodox Church. This attack used the Slowhttp tool.

There were two related destination IPs, one of which seems to be a version for mobile browsers. On each attacked IP, there were two attacked URLs: ‘/ ‘ and ‘/search/’.

The 15,000 accesses to ‘/’ were made using POST method, with content length of 4096. There was a referrer header with this value: http://code.google.com/p/slowhttptest/, which directs to the tool’s Website and serves as an identifier.

The 13,000 accesses to ‘/search/’ were made using the GET method. These requests didn’t have a referrer header, but had a parameter (probably for the search) with a random string (e.g. oNsNDTdC). The random parameter ensured that the client’s requests reached the server, bypassing any caching between them.

The week of May 7, 2012 was the week of the Russian elections. During this time, the LOIC attack described above and we observed two more attacks against Russian government sites. Both were DoS attempts using the slowhttp tool. This was also a part of Anonymous’ struggle against the re-election of Putin for president.8 The attack on one of the targets continued until the end of May.
