    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?<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

                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

                                      <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
