3D Gaussian Splatting achieves exceptional real-time rendering, but its substantial computational and storage demands hinder widespread deployment. Existing accelerated paradigms often aggressively prune primitives for rapid convergence, causing severe loss of high-frequency details. To address this, we tackle the fundamental problem of achieving both exceptional rendering quality and ultra-fast reconstruction speed. In this paper, we propose ACE-GS, a progressive optimization framework tailored for accurate, compressed, and efficient scene representation. We realize that precise primitive management is the key to breaking this trade-off. Therefore, we first design a momentum consistency-guided densification strategy, strictly constraining primitive growth onto authentic geometric manifolds to avoid computational waste while significantly accelerating convergence. Building upon this efficient initialization, we deploy a statistical sensitivity-driven sparsification mechanism to precisely prune redundant primitives, yielding a further compressed footprint. Finally, to thoroughly compensate for the risk of micro-structure loss caused by the aforementioned strict primitive control, we introduce a cross-dimensional residual frequency compensation scheme that explicitly back-injects high-frequency error energy into primitive attributes, perfectly restoring sharp geometric details. Extensive experiments validate our superiority. While maintaining a highly compact scene representation, our system achieves up to 3.7 times training acceleration against the rapid framework Speedy-Splat. Requiring only 3 to 5 minutes to converge, ACE-GS secures the highest structural similarity and achieves a peak PSNR improvement of up to 0.89 dB over the original 3DGS, establishing a new benchmark for ultra-fast and high-fidelity novel view synthesis.
