It is arguable, that updating the DB software version in an enterprise
environment requires exactly that: check all production queries on the
new software to identify any issues. In part, this is brought on by the
very tuning that you performed against the previous software. Restore
the 8.1 DB into 8.2. Then run the queries against both versions to
evaluate functioning and timing.

And it is always a good idea to do this in a "clean room environment" aka test server and set the logging in PostgreSQL to log all queries longer than xx ms. If you first install 8.1 on the test machine, do a test run and then upgrade to 8.2, you can compare results from the tests and find the queries that are slower or faster quite easily.
