What > do I wrong? 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.
