The 5 qubit code is the smallest possible code that protects a single logical qubit from all errors on the coding physical qubits. It uses a small number of ancilla - those are not protected, so this is not in itself a practical code.
It's probable that the decoding rate for full-strength codes will be a significant limitation; a content addressable memory with kilobit addressing is a challenging structure to build, even with 10's MHz cycle times. Practical decoders will be approximate, but as latency is a critical factor it's probable that dedicated semiprogrammable processing ASIC's will be needed.
