What will happen if I try to compact with insufficient headroom?

One of my nodes is 76% full. I know that one of CFs represents 90% of the
data, others are really minor. Can I still compact under these conditions?
Will it crash and lose the data? Will it try to create one very large file
out of fragments, for that dominating CF?

TIA
