COMPRESS TABLESPACE 11g
The datapump export has the complete DDL for every object you exported.  So while the default for the tablespace is to compress, this can (and will) be overridden by any explicit setting for a table.
Check the COMPRESSION column on xxx_TABLES for the schema(s) you are importing to see if you are truly getting any compression.
You will need to use &quot;transform=segment_attributes&quot; variants on import to ensure that you strip off the storage elements of your objects to that they pick up the default you set at tablespace level.
