In 10g, the Rman backup is optimized to no longer back up the data blocks in which the table frees space.
The backed up document is 9i, so it has always been considered that the Rman backup only backs up the blocks where the data was written, and that Rman does not matter if the current block is released, so the Rman backup set tends to grow larger as the space in the data file is constantly occupied.
