I took a look of node-curl.  It build from its own source code, not
depending on node's http.request

Since I haven't used node-curl nor did any load testing on this, I cannot
say how good it is under stress.  also, I don't know how this node-module
handles socket / connection management.

I used http.request before with a lot of load testing and real time massive
traffic.  So, I can say that one is reliable when you have everything set
correctly.  Of course, it requires bit more coding.

If you plan to use node-curl or any other modules, I will suggest you to do
a lot of load testings, watch the CPU , memory and socket pool,  and see if
it meets your requirement.  I usually do the test by remotely connect to
google recaptcha and another node server created by myself in another box -
a simply server  just have app.get(/*,...)   So you have two set of numbers
to compare.
