MongoCollection.find() does search twice?

I am using the code snupped as below :

if (collection.find(toFind) != null) {
            dataFound = collection.find(toFind).first();
        } else {
            System.err.println("NULL");
        }

As collection.find() is being called twice here, will that be performing 2 searches on database or becasue it returns a FindIterable, its just a cusror???

We are restricted to limit the database operations and avoid as much necessary, as we are paying it per request unit

Why not store the find result and then use the store variable

var queryResult = collection.find(toFind)
if(queryResult != null){
 dataFound = queryResult.first()
} else { // Handle error here}

Or better yet just use the findOne method to get the first result

var queryResult = collection.findOne(toFind)
if(!queryResult){
  //Handle result here
}

And to answer the question, yes it will perform the query twice.
