Deepak Majeti commented on PARQUET-545:
---------------------------------------
As far as I understood, Impala treats `Decimal` and `Timestamp` values similar
to parquet primitive types and supports them at the encode/decode layer.
`parquet-mr` on the other hand, leaves it to its clients (say `hive`) to
interpret them from the parquet primitive types (eg: `FIXED_LEN_BYTE_ARRAY`).
However, `parquet-mr` does some basic checks on `length` `precison` and `scale`
values specified in the schema. I will update the scope of this JIRA.
> Support Decimal values
