Basically, you must use the latest incarnation of inline-jflow (starting from 14.2), with most of PR fixed (that is : 14.2R7, 15.1R4, 15.1F6) and it should be fine.

These were pre 13.2 on the 480 if memory serves but this is going back in the haze a bit so feel free to sanity check.  Inline JFlow does not have the same impact to processing of other platforms so you can be less concerned.
