it depends. 

the last project that I started that required facebook registration, I used 
devise because it's omniauth integration made that ridiculously easy...like I 
didn't really have to do anything.

since then, I've only started apps that needed local auth. in these cases I've 
used authlogic + the requisite rails 3 money patches (c/f railsplugins.org). 
expect lots of deprecation warnings.

devise is fabulous, but it takes "convention over configuration" to a 
horrifying new level.

IMO: use authlogic unless using devise will save you a ton of time upfront.
