Hello,

If I remember correctly, back to the old day when I use Apache 1.3x,
is it possible with mod_gzip, why this function is dropped in 2.x
mod_deflate?

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_deflate.html

Don't you guy think compressing a static CSS or JS on-the-fly is wasteful?

Yes.  But apache is modular, and provides better solutions.
You can either pre-compress your files and use content negotiation
(mod_negotiation) to select the right variant, or just let mod_cache
do the work.

Adding that crap to mod_deflate would just break modularity and
add complexity.
