You can use a DESTROY=Y (I think) on the import to overwrite and re-use tablespaces.

Also, consider truncating all the tables as this also seems to speed up the process. I assume that a drop 'including contents' uses standard deletes against all the tables before actually dropping them, with a lot of rollback work going on.
