   During conversion of pyarrow data to Pandas, columns are checked for 
timestamp types and then modified to correct for local timezone. If the data 
contains no timestamp types, then unnecessary copies of the data can be made. 
This is most prevalent when checking columns of a pandas DataFrame where each 
series is assigned back to the DataFrame, regardless if it had timestamps. See 
https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@arrow.apache.org/msg17008.html and ARROW-7596 
for discussion.

reviewers can test and check, and descendants can verify in the future.
