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.
You need to set up client server connection.

Hi all,
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?
Thanks in advance,
