Here is the command I used on the new server:
nohup impdp system/secret NETWORK_LINK=olddb FULL=y  PARALLEL% &

Then you can run this to see which parallel process is importing which
table:

Impdp system attach

Import> status

Import> parallel0 << this will increase the parallel processes if you want

I had created all the datafiles in the new database and created a db link
named olddb beforehand. The servers were on the same local area network and
the network was the bottleneck.
