In general, when you hear "minifier", it's safe, and when you hear "obfuscator", it's potentially dangerous, and needs to be retested post-compression.Packer is presented as just a "compressor", but AFAIK, it's a minifier. The two check marks you see - "shirnk variables" and "base62 encode" are obfuscation features. If you use them, you may need to retest your code post-compression.
