Huge PI in vmstat

This is something nowbody around me can explain:
vmstat (-S 5) shows a huge number of PI but when I try to monitor it in parallel with iostat - there is no IO activity to be seen that would correspond to this.

I have 16G RAM and 32G swap file.
I'll really appreciate if somebody can explain it.

r b w swap free si so pi po fr de sr s0 s1 s2 s3 in sy cs us sy id
