v5 is a fixed format which is no longer being developed - all NetFlow 
implementation moving forward are based upon v9.

v9 gives you egress NetFlow, support for MPLS, and is an extensible telemetry 
format which enables features like Flexible NetFlow, which provides 
finer-grained information about network traffic.

Nil - single-digit CPU, 0.5% - 1.5% of overall traffic volume, multiplied by 
sampling factor (i.e, for 1:100, you'd multiply by 0.01).

You don't really have a choice; you must implement v9, as v5 is obsolete and is 
no longer being developed.  But it's all upside, with no drawbacks.
