Line 65:               <p rev="IMPALA-4572">
We should definitely also highlight IMPALA-1430 which fixes the slow COMPUTE 
STATS issue with TIMESTAMP. COMPUTE STATS is now codegen'd even if there are 
TIMESTAMP columns. The JIRA is not yet marked as fixed because there is some 
follow-on work, but the COMPUTE STATS issue specifically has been fixed.


Line 130:                 format <codeph>TIMESTAMP</codeph> values, such as the 
result
A naked now() function is a particularly bad example, because now() is already 
constant within a query, so does not benefit from this improvement. A better 
example is something like:

WHERE date_col = to_date(now() - interval 1 day)

the right-hand size expression is somewhat complicated and expensive to 
evaluate for every row. Constant folding makes this significantly faster.
