I played at some point with Tor bot code and I got rates up to tens of thousands of requests per second and hundreds of megabits per second. So the attacks don't sound too serious in this case. Also modifying Tor itself to allow higher data rates is possible, if you're already using anonymous systems. Then you can avoid the slowness caused by onion hops.
