Yes, 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>
