Practice is 80/20 in favour of composed stuff (although this is a relatively recent regimine).
Live, 100% improvised.
Recordings, so far, 100% improvised.
Infrequently, I'll play songs, but I never write them. I do compose stuff, but it's never up to my (impossible) standards.
I think songwriting is the single most difficult thing. If you're any good with words, you should be writing literature (I like to think I'm very good with words, but it's alway literature); if you're any good with music, you should be writing music. There are nearly no people who are good at both words and music, which is why I tend towards the inane in my own language, and prefer anything in a language I don't get. I have a faint sense that I'd love Datblygu more if I knew what they were singing, but am petrified that his lyrics won't rock me hard.
