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?

Sorry, I didn't explain it properly. I have already tried to connect
to a pvserver from a GUI running on the client (without an ssh
connection then) but it also drains the memory on Xorg. What is the
load supposed to be on a client-pvserver connection?
Thanks,

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,
