MongoDB .NET driver find all : How to write it better?

Question

I am able to query all the items of a collection using 2 approaches

a)

var findAll = await Context.ItemsCollection.FindAsync(_ => true);
var res = await findAll.ToListAsync();

b)

var res = await.Context.ItemsCollection.Find(_ => true).ToListAsync();

Is there a real difference between them?Which one should I prefer ?

Answer 1

There's no real difference. It will eventually behave the same.

Find doesn't execute the query, while FindAsync does, but using ToListAsync makes that difference irrelevant.
