I guess it depends on what you are doing. If you are a dps class trying to do the most dps, the socket bonus isn't usually worth it to go after if you could end up with more sp/ap by just putting in the largest gem of that type since for most classes stamina (for example) doesn't add anything to your dps. That being said, it doesn't really matter that much what you do until you are gearing up with stuff that is close to BiS, you are trying to squeeze out those last points of dps and you have maximized yourself skill wise. Before then you are probably still getting comfortable with rotation and priority so sticking in some cheap green gems and grabbing a socket bonus is fine.
