20MB is the default (http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...e_settings), so 24MB will not do you much good. I have it at 100MB and buffermode 1 and it works extremely well.

My only worry is that setting the buffer at 100 MB, thereby using 300 MB RAM, might cause issues. Have you checked how much free RAM your FTV has while playing a movie?

Yeah, but at least on my end, setting it to 100MB buffer is actually only buffering about 63MB max.

And at 100MB you're only using about 50% or less RAM. You still have about 1 - 1.2GB free.

Yes, the last time I checked, it had enough of free RAM.
