It should be recommended for large Cacti installations not to stay with Boost tables using the MEMORY engine, especially in combination with the multiprocessing update feature 1.2.17 will provide.
My prod installation was totally in trouble yesterday caused by a race condition between the different processes waiting for memory table locks. If you have a fast storage system the recommendation should always be to use only INNODB engine for all Boost tables.
