What's the CACHE and LOGGING values for these LOBs (from dba_lobs view). If you have NOCACHE LOBs, then import has to write these immediately to disk using direct writes (and to redologs, depending on LOGGING setting). When you have CACHE LOBs, these don't have to be written to datafiles immediately, they can remain in buffer cache until DBWR writes them to disks.
Btw, when using import, set your recordlength to 65535.
