The files should be resident near the server, so compression won't affect
them (unless you are doing something in the Cloud, in which case I can't
help you).
For compression and its relationship to remote rendering, try the various
presets on [Preferences|Settings]->Render View->Server

Thanks David, That works great.
If I can abuse this list just a little further for advice. Do you have any
suggestions on compression levels both within paraview and for the ssh
tunnel? To put this in context the server is being managed over the
internet (so relatively slow connection). The files
Yes you are on the right track.
Remove N from -nNTR since that tells ssh _not_ to run the command. Then
what you have will likely work .
Also consider putting that the command that launches pvserver in a script.
In the script you can do arbitrary setup, such as launching pvserver
through pbs etc.
Thanks David that works a treat.
Is it possible to combine the tunnel set up and server start up in the
server configuration?
I tried:
ssh -nNTR 2223:localhost:1 me@pvserver-host ".bin/pvserver
--server-port=2223 -rc"
but to no effect.

You are just missing that you need to use a reverse connection to make the
server attempt to connect through the tunnel back to the listening client,
as opposed to the normal connection mode where the client connects to the
listening server.
In your setup the ssh tunnel is listening on the server
Hi,
I am trying to run a pvserver which is connected to using a client behind a
firewall. The firewall blocks everything except ssh going out. Hence I am
trying to use pvserver through an ssh tunnel.
My plan was as follows:
On client (inside firewall):
1 - Start paraview
2 - Create ssh tunell fo
