If ur export dump file being created on the same drive as that of ur tables , and same for Import.

Though in this case not sure for export, but import very sure, after i did remotely from other server the import it went in an hours time, where by on the same disk , it took 12 hours+ to complete.

Bottomline is look for Contention

IK
