Highly dependent on spoke count, and somewhat of hub design/lace pattern. If you get down to a 20-spoke rear it can have a recommended range of 140-160 kg on the driveside. Designs that run the driveside radial (heads-in or straight-pull) tend to be at the lower end, as they can position all the spokes closer to the cassette.
For 32-36 spoke wheels it's usually considered OK to run the driveside somewhat above 110 kg
