The Canon jpeg settings are poorly choosen. A high quality jpeg from the camera or software corresponds to a 100% JPEG group conversion. Those settings aren't harmful to the image, but they basically turn off jpeg compression, so your image is huge with no quality gain over a lower setting. A low quality jpeg from the camera or software corresponds to a 90% JPEG group conversion, which is what an ideal high quality should be.
I keep mine on low quality large size jpeg and raw unless I'm shooting utter trash (such as pictures of myself jumping up and down to try out my new timer remote), or need to shoot so fast that the buffer won't keep up.
