Thanks Daniel, but I ran a quick query on v$db_cache_advice and see the
following (I formatted the number)

  1  select BLOCK_SIZE, SIZE_FOR_ESTIMATE "Size", SIZE_FACTOR "Factor",
ESTD_PHYSICAL_READ_FACTOR "PIO Factor"
  2  , ESTD_PHYSICAL_READS "PIOs"
  3* from v$db_cache_advice
> /

BLOCK_SIZE       Size     Factor PIO Factor               PIOs
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ------------------

We can see that it now shows over 1 billion PIO's. I also checked the
sprepins.sql script (the one spreport.sql calls) and that formats the value
to 9,999,999,999,999.
