I've got a 6509 with sup720-3bxl running 12.2(18)SXD7b. It's forwarding several hundred mbit/s across a number of gig ports on WS-X6416-GBIC cards.

I've noticed it's gotten very slow at certain things (like write mem), and when looking at the switch (remote command switch show proc cpu), I was kind of shocked to see 85% CPU utilization or higher across all time avgs. The biggest CPU eating process seems to be netflow export

 223  2563111984 126342970      20287 38.27% 42.39% 42.03%   0 NDE - IPV4

Other than disabling export or moving traffic off this device, are there things I can do to tone this down? The couple hundred mbit/s this switch is forwarding is supposed to be no big deal for this platform.
