Was going to say that this should be in the "skills" forum, but perception is such a dynamic unknown that I dont even want to assume its a skill.
As a miner I've "chased" several perception gains and got nothing and so concluded that it meant nothing. Then, after one very bad trip I had 15 probes left and was heading back to a tp. Dropped one and got a perception gain. I thought "sod it, one more try, this run cant get any worse" carpet bombed around it (I usually mine in a rough straight line) and hit a 600 ped oil.
Since then, perception gains have led me to finds which are slightly larger than usual but have also have caused me to waste alot of PED.
I think its just random (in my case lucky) coincidence but whilst I'd love to end this post with a solid conclusion (I want to say its all rubbish) I cant yet.
