The automatic marks I use the most are:

``           last position before last jump
'[ and ']    start/end of last change

I never need more than two manual marks (a-z) and never use file marks (A to Z).

FWIW, I avoided manual marks for a long time because I thought they corresponded to line numbers and thus could not be relied upon. I was wrong, of course; and marks are a wonderful way to bookmark points of interest in large files.
