Yes there is a way to change this. By specifying the option: TDPO_AVG_SIZE n (where 'n' is the size estimate, in MB, you want TDP Oracle to use with the TSM Server)
Using this option overrides any size that Oracle specifies and can cause other performance problems on the the TSM Server. However, this option is very useful if you are using compression and the TSM Server is up against the wall with regards to availabe storage space for backups.

So for DB estimation, TDP Oracle uses the value that Oracle passes to it (which probably is overestimated). If compression is turned on then this value is grossly overestimated.
