Have you tried RE-based sampling? We use

input {
    family inet {
        rate 1000;
        run-length 0;
        max-packets-per-second 1000;
    }
}
output {
    cflowd a.b.c.d {
        port 2055;
        version 5;
        no-local-dump;
        autonomous-system-type origin;
    }
}

and then for the relevant interfaces we have a firewall filter which
includes the "sample" keyword.
