database space and export file size ?

Oracle 7.3.4 on Unix

I use "select sum(bytes) from user_segments where owner='JOHN'" and the result is about 3GB.

But use export owner=JOHN, the dump file only 800MB. Even full=y the dump file is only about 1.2GB. Why is so different? Is there anyway can tell roughly what the export dump file size will be?

Thanks
