As explained on this Wikipedia page, when an object is experiencing strong gravitational forces, time passes slower for it. If, in theory, you had two objects exerting the same amount of gravitational pressure on an object in opposite directions, effectively cancelling each other out, would they cancel out the time dilation, or would they compound, making the time dilation more prevalant?
