Thanks.

What could be a good replacement for 7600s to overcome this limitation?
ASR9K?Nexus7K?

By the way, I have tried netflow on 7600 and tcam shoots up.
I am still researching as to why 7600 sucks on this.

thanks

Answering this question separately, it works quite well, as long as the exporting devices provide quality flow telemetry (Cisco pre-Sup2T/-DFC4 6500s & 7600s have severe NetFlow limitations, as do pre-Sup7 4500s).  

If you're just getting started with flow telemetry, I'd urge you to try out some of the various open-source collection/analysis tools such as nfdump/nfsen, nProbe, and so forth.  You'll gain valuable operational experience by doing so, and will gain a good grasp of the capabilities and usefulness of flow telemetry.
