Did you check how much time this step takes?

PS1, Line 117: # dsdgen emits string data in ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1), which can 
contain bytes that are
             : # not valid UTF-8 (e.g. the 0xD4 in customer.c_birth_country). 
Convert the generated
             : # files to UTF-8 so the loaded TPC-DS data is valid Unicode 
(IMPALA-5961).
             : echo "Converting generated data files from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8"
             : for data_file in *.dat; do
             :   iconv -f ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8 "${data_file}" -o 
"${data_file}.utf8"
             :   mv "${data_file}.utf8" "${data_file}"
             : done
An alternative would be do the conversion when reading with Impala.
This can be done by setting 
TBLPROPERTIES("serialization.encoding"="ISO-8859-1") for the text tables.
I would prefer this approach because it would give more testing for this 
relatively new encoding feature.
