I also dislike how huge widgets are by default in GTK+3 (eg. Adwait and 
most "flat" themes), but I believe Greybird has a pretty decent GTK+3 
theme. For example, to me, xfce4-terminal with GTK+3 looks like it did 
in GTK+2 (maybe I haven't noticed some changes). As for MenuLibre, it is 
thankfully something you rarely have to look at, haha!

You may want to have a look at xfce-look.org, and see if you find a more 
compact theme. That would be a lot easier than trying to modify them. A 
good example: https://www.xfce-look.org/p/1174686/

Regarding the title bar, there is this module to disable client side 
decorations, but it is something I have never ventured into:
