OP here. Agree there probably isn't much benefit to minifying server-side code. However, I wouldn't be surprised if things like Closure Compiler were useful server-side.

Not convinced that HTTP2 will eradicate minifiers; it makes bundling files less useful, but minifying still gets rid of bytes. Then again, I'm not a web performance expert. :)

Sorry, that's a mistake - I meant to write "HTTP2 + Web Assembly" (which will take the place of file concatenation and minification).
