string theory, if you look at it too cynically it's a high dimension optimisation process.
edit: also the headline seems a bit over-dramatic it's not running out it's slowing down.

Good point. Time is only relative. I'm not sure if there would be any nasty (human) consequences to time going infinitely slow. It's still going at the same pace for the observer.
Time slowing seems like it'd be asymptotic. You should be able to have an arbitrarily large time t, where time is flowing at rate r > 0. According to my calculations, anyway. (Along the lines of: "shit, I really don't want time to stop.")
