You are in a bad situation against an aggressive big stack. If you raise 3xBB, villain is probably not standard reraising and letting you push. He probably reraises big or flat calls. It is hard to play this hand postflop against the big stack. Also, when villain standard reraises and you 4-bet, you are often called.
A raise to 2.3xBB is much better, as it makes it harder for ape to commit to go allin, and it is easier to fold if you want to when ape reraises. It still pretty well commits you against the short situation.
In this situation, you might just open fold. You need to play overly solidly and conservative in this situation.

Its definitely not hard to play this hand with position if he flat calls.

You are at a big disadvantage due to stack sizes playing this postflop. Aside from him applying pressure, you just don't want to gamble for all your chips.

Not really...pot is still pretty small, we have position and can use pot control if it makes sense.
