>    Affects Versions: 0.16.0, 0.17.0
>         Environment: Tested using pyarrow 0.17.0, pandas 1.0.3, python 3.7.5, mojave (macos). Also tested using pyarrow 0.16.0, pandas 1.0.3, python 3.8.2, ubuntu 20.04 (linux).

> Given dump.py script 
>  
> {code:java}
> import pandas as pd
> import numpy as np
> x = pd.to_datetime(np.random.randint(0, 2**32, size=2**20), unit='ms', utc=True)
> pd.DataFrame({'x': x}).to_parquet('data.parquet', engine='pyarrow', compression=None)
> {code}
> and load.py script
>  
> {code:java}
> import sys
> import pandas as pd
> def foo(engine):
>     for _ in range(2**9):
>         pd.read_parquet('data.parquet', engine=engine)
>     print('Done')
>     input()
> foo(sys.argv[1])
> {code}
> running first "python dump.py" and then "python load.py pyarrow", on my machine python memory usage stays at 4+ GB while it waits for input. If using "python load.py fastparquet" instead, it is about 100 MB, so it should be a pyarrow issue instead of a pandas issue. The leak disappears if "utc=True" is removed from dump.py, in which case the timestamp is timezone-unaware.
