The approx. 120 lines of code – on top of the well tested libraries Request and Bluebird – are covered by over 60 tests producing a test coverage of 100% and beyond. Additionally, the original tests of Request were executed on Request-Promise to ensure that we can call it "a drop-in replacement for Request". So yes, we did our best to make Request-Promise live up to the quality Request and Bluebird are known for.
However, there is one important design detail: Request-Promise passes a callback to each Request call which it uses to resolve or reject the promise. The callback is also registered if you don't use the promise features in a certain request. E.g. you may only use streaming: `rp(...).pipe(...)` As a result, [additional code](https://github.com/request/request/blob/master/request.js#L1010-L1059) is executed that buffers the streamed data and passes it as the response body to the "complete" event. If you stream [large quantities of data](https://github.com/request/request-promise/issues/53) the buffer grows big and that has an impact on your memory footprint. In these cases you can just `var request = require('request');` and use `request` for streaming large quantities of data.
