I would be careful with anything per table for memory sizing. We used to have 
many caches and things that could be tuned per table, but they have all since 
changed to being per node, as it was a real PITA to get them right.  Having to 
do per table heap/gc/memtable/cache tuning just sounds like a usability 
nightmare.
