What do you mean? If you're starting the X app on the remote system
using X-forwarding with ssh, you're running a remote application using
the remote system's CPU and memory. If you're trying to do something
like open a whole X session on the remote system like a remote
terminal, something like a "remote desktop", you'd probably need to
look into using something like VNC over SSH or something using XNest
may work.
