You have to distinguish between the cpu load seen as interrupt load 
(caused mostly by walking through the TCAM, collecting statistics and 
storing them in netflow cache) and the cpu load caused by NDE process 
(packet generation). Enabling netflow sampling you can decrease the 
second part of the load - the cpu will generate significantly less 
packets of export statistics.
