Couchbase connections

I wanted to see what calling getBucket and defaultCollection did and if there was any traffic

it doesn't appear there is.

I ran sudo tcpdump -i lo0 dst port 11210 locally in terminal and then in another terminal did this

let { connect } = require("couchbase");
let c;
connect("couchbase://localhost", {
  username: "admin",
  password: "password",
}).then((c) => (c = cl));

// then run this a bunch of times and watch tcpdump output
c.getBucket().defaultCollection();

tcpdump doesn't really show any added traffic until you start doing .get or .insert commands so it appears they are safe to keep calling. The only other call that sends traffic is the actual connect.
