We propose the first compression approach for image-to-shape Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) that substantially reduces model size while preserving geometric fidelity. Despite remarkable progress in 3D shape generation, large DiT-based models remain computationally prohibitive in resource-constrained settings. Furthermore, it is difficult to directly transfer existing diffusion model compression strategies developed for different domains to 3D generation, and prior 3D efficiency approaches focus primarily on inference speed rather than backbone compression. To address this limitation, we build a geometry-aware compression framework tailored to image-to-shape DiTs. Guided by the observation that 3D DiT layers exhibit non-uniform importance for geometry synthesis, we introduce a vitality-guided framework integrating structured pruning, adaptive quantization, and targeted fine-tuning. Our method achieves up to 66% model-size reduction across state-of-the-art image-to-3D models while maintaining synthesis fidelity comparable to full-sized counterparts. This highlights the potential of our framework as a plug-and-play solution for efficient 3D shape generation across diverse models.
