As a side node that will require longer time and more space than the ALTER TABLE Engine=InnoDB ROW_FORMAT_COMPRESSED, as you will have to read the table to write the dump, and then read the dump to write the table, opposed to reading the table to write the new one.

Furthermore unless you do online gzipping or such the dump will require more space than the new, compressed, table.

But, hey, it's your server :-)
