Ug. you're using the multicore option to start the servers! I
believe that this forces remote rendering off. That would explain
your issues. Could you try duisabling the multi core option and
start your servers manually?<div><div class="h5"><br>

OK, one possibility is that it may be related to remote rendering
settings. Under menu Edit->Settings->Render View->Server
there is a remote render threshold. I always set this to 0 bytes
to ensure remote parallel rendering. What's yours set to?<br>

What you describe is expected. X forwarding doesn't work
well for visualizing large datasets. The point is :
don't use X forwarding. The links show how to configure
the client server connection without X forwarding. Make
sure that there is no -X on the ssh command line.<span><font color="#888888"><br>

The connection I think is properly established
since it works fine for smaller datasets. What
should the load on the client be in that case?

this is expected. The OpenGL calls get
piped to your local system. This includes
data like vertices and colors as well. X
forwarding doesn't give good performance
and with large data it may not even be
feasible.<br>
<br>
You need to set up client server
connection.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi all,
<div>I have a rather large
unstructured pvtu dataset (about
4 million points) which I am
visualizing on a remote server.
I am running the paraview GUI
(with the multicore option) on
the server and I connect to it
via ssh sharing the X server. In
this way I can control the GUI
running on the serve. I thought
that with this configuration I
would only receive a screenshot
of the window and no actual data
from paraview but the client
seems to share at least some of
the load of the visualization.
Is this the expected behaviour?
How can I avoid loading data on
the client side?</div>
<div>Thanks in advance,</div>
