Sorry I don't understand the question - when you say "much smaller in size", what size are you referring to, like 3DM file size? Or number of polygons or something like that?

3DS format can only contain triangles, so trying to use that format will result in many more polygons being generated because all quads will probably get converted to triangles.

Or maybe you're running into something like importObj does not support non-planar n-gons ?

But again, I don't really recommend trying to work with this kind of data in MoI at all - it's faceted polygon data and MoI is not designed to work with polygon data - polygon editing programs are a better tool for working with polygon data.
