Matt,
This may be a stupid idea, so feel free to beat me about the head and shoulders at our next meeting...
Could you create subsets of the larger table in smaller tables by using a create table as select with a predicate? Then you could export the smaller tables as separate units. Of course, this also means reversing the process on the import.
