The CPU load you showed us was low. You don't pay for CPU load, you've paid for a dedicated server, if you do, you shouldn't be. If text data was sent compressed the user has less to DL, it helps the bandwidth of the user hopefully speeding up page load time. It's easy to set up and test and just as easy to disable.

On the commandline #a2enmod deflate - to enable the module or however you do it in cpanel.
