Jean,
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.

When I do that Xorg process on the client drains the memory up until
it crashes. 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?

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,
