High paging activity means a page which goes to cpu to get executed if it need a IO operation this page will go for waiting state by that the cpu wont sit idle another page will come for execution, this waiting Page after getting IO will again go to CPU to get executed suppose if again this page needs IO operation will go for waiting state, so instead of getting executed the process if taking more time in paging is called as high paging activity ie..
