I think you could just go into the stones and ores entry and make their densities like 1. However this would also make said stone and ore useless for blunt damage. However if you do not use stone fall traps this would matter little to you. However I have not tested this so you will have to try.

Adapt your playstyle to the changes. I find that it's generally faster and more effective (sans a few bugs) than the old hauling.

Make dedicated stone quarries, build a temporary mason's workshop right there, convert to blocks, transport off with minecart tracks. Optionally use wheelbarrows to ferry the blocks to collection stockpiles next to the minecarts if you collect from a dispersed area.

Use several small stockpiles instead of few large ones. That allows for more wheelbarrows.

Have more dedicated haulers than before.

Stone stockpiles default to requiring a wheelbarrow. Make one or make the stockpile not use wheelbarrows.
