File docs/topics/impala_timestamp.xml:

http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/11946/1/docs/topics/impala_timestamp.xml@180
PS1, Line 180:       + INTERVAL <varname>n-hours</varname></codeph> can be 
affected Daylight Saving Time, which
nit: missing 'by'?

PS1, Line 193: Configuring custom time zones:
I think that it would be better to move custom timezone databases/aliases to a 
separate topic/file if possible, as only probably only a small subset of users 
will be interested in these.


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/11946/1/docs/topics/impala_timestamp.xml@333
PS1, Line 333: values the same way it stores
             :       without any adjustment.
This part of the sentence is not clear for me.

PS1, Line 367: turned off by
             :       default to avoid performance overhead
I think that this was true before 3.1, but in 3.1 the conversion became much 
faster, so the main reason is compatibility: the result of an existing 
non-buggy query should not change in a minor version.

I think that IMPALA-3307 could be mentioned as the reason for speedup. 
convert_legacy_hive_parquet_utc_timestamps is known by users to be extremely 
slow, so the change could be highlighted to make it clear that this a much 
small issue now.
