Canon peripheral illumination correct, off or on?

I'm pretty sure its only on crop bodies to correct barrel distortion/lighting etc, Lightroom has a similar thing on there.
Should I leave it off my camera off and correct in Lightroom if needed?
I've tried different shots with it on and off and it does make a difference, but whats best, camera adjustment or PP adjustment?

Cheers

I'm seeing difference with raws, it's correcting almost a vignetting effect, strange as I only looked for the difference with my F4L so shouldn't be any vignetting anyway

Also in manual so no metering change

Also I don't see it being only for jpeg as wether you shoot in jpeg or raw, your still using the same sensor and lens so the correction would still be needed

Ah that might be it, I only shoot raw but the image preview on the camera LCD shows a jpeg lol

Cheers all
