Post RS Errors

I've noticed for a couple of weeks now that I've been getting some post rs errors showing in the downstream stats. If I've understood correctly, these are packets of data that can't be corrected? Current values are below:

The SH2 was reset 4 days ago and I cleared the counters after it had finished booting up. Are they anything to be concerned about? Speed and ping seems fine.
