You have to be careful here. Just using OpenGL doesn't ensure this.
You can very easily swamp an ssh tunnel with OpenGL/GLX protocol. The
best way to mitigate this is to use OpenGL display lists, where the
geometry is sent once, stored on the card (or graphics driver), and
executed with a single command. And this still isn't a panacea.
