My operational experience is that this is not necessarily true,
depending on your application.  IIRC, on the Sup2+MSFC2, there
is an increased *probability* of netflow information being
lost, up to the hard cap of 128,000 entries.  So, depending
on what you're doing, max'ing out the table can be good
enough, and possibly give you more resolution.
