Deep stacked adjustments

I was recently playing in a game where I had increased my stack size to 300bb, and within this game, I encountered a player with a 400bb stack.

When in a 100bb game, its clear when to shove and when not to (most of the time), but in a deep stacked game, when I came into a situation with a marginal hand (which would have been a thin shove 100bb deep) I was unsure of whether I should have increased the size of the pot with a shoveable, yet vulnerable hand 100bb deep, or whether I should have kept the pot small, and just called my opponents bet.

What I'm asking is, should you be more inclined to increase the size of a pot (in a deep stacked game) when you have a marginal hand, or should you keep the pot small, and wait until your equity on the turn is larger (before increasing the pot size), risking the chance of being drawn out on?
