Can you try applying the command "no mls netflow" in addition to "no ip route-cache flow" command. The "no msl netflow" is needed to disable the NetFlow collection from the PFC of the switch.
reply to carp I'm figuring I'm going to have to jiggle something, interface up/down, reload, your suggestion, etc'.. to get it to stop collecting on the interfaces it's been turned off on. Still need to keep it for select interfaces.
