Need advice - Quick plumbing question

Hi guys need some quick advice - I have been slaving over this plumbing job and have been using 90 degree sweeps instead of 90 degree elbows to reduce friction and head pressure. However in talking to the guys at HD/Lowes these 90 degree sweeps (or street elbows ) should be used only for
drains not for pressure situations. Do I have a future disaster waiting to happen and therefore need to replumb? Are any of you using sweeps in your return lines? Thanks
