Is gravitational time dilation a form of computational latency?

I've been exploring a speculative idea: what if some of the "strange" phenomena in physics—like gravitational time dilation—aren't fundamental forces, but emergent effects of a universe with finite computational resources?

In this preprint, I model the universe as a Universal Computing System (UCS). The core hypothesis is what I call Information-Induced Time Dilation (ITD): regions with high information density may experience a local "processing lag," which we observe physically as time dilation.

Rather than replacing General Relativity, the idea is to extend it by adding an information entropy term to the stress-energy tensor. Importantly, the paper also outlines a concrete experimental test using Sr-87 optical lattice clocks that could, in principle, distinguish this effect from standard GR predictions.

I'd really appreciate feedback from people in systems, distributed computing, and physics: Does it make sense to think of spacetime as having computational bottlenecks, latency, or throughput limits?

Where math?

For instance: an explicit form of the T^info term (introduced on page 4) for a physical system.

Without that, this is just meaningless LLM drippings.
