I don't know anything about mininet or how it uses OVS, but it sounds like 
there are issues with the sFlow packets that are being generated. A good 
starting place for diagnosing the problem would be to use sflowtool to print 
the contents of the sFlow datagrams:

Take a look at are the agent, sourceId and ifIndex number fields and see if 
they make sense in relation to your OVS configuration. FYI the sFlow 
specification is here:
