CREATE EXTENSION pg_buffercache

SELECT

	COUNT(*) AS buffers
FROM
	pg_class c
INNER JOIN pg_buffercache b ON
	b.relfilenode = c.relfilenode
INNER JOIN pg_database d ON
	( b.reldatabase = d.oid
	AND d.datname = CURRENT_DATABASE())
GROUP BY
	c.relname

Alter Column

ALTER TABLE rlarp.pcore ALTER COLUMN pack SET DATA TYPE numeric USING pack::numeric

psql binary for latest version is always used but pg_dump is not, you have to set the default version in ~/.postgresqlrc
