V-Series and FAST Cache

Hopefully I don't start a religious war here, but I have a question about interoperability between the V-Series filers (a V3160 in our case) and FAST Cache on the EMC Clariion CX4 series, specifically whether it's a good idea to enable FAST Cache on LUNs which are presented to the filers. More specifically, we have two classes data by and large, unstructured data (files) and virtual machines. Would enabling FAST Cache for either class of data potentially improve performance?

Thanks,

Tom
