There is a way to export (on Unix) to a pipe, which is being
emptied by 'COMPRESS',
However, you might consider doing a structural full export (rows = n). Then export a schema, or set of related tables at a time. This allows for several exports to run concurrently and can speed things up significantly.
Import => import structure, then import data sets. Less benefit on concurrency here, since the limit is likely to be redo rather than database file I/O
