The vacuum of space from the moment of the Big Bang henceforth has not been a perfect vacuum. However, at a moment before the Big Bang, "space" would have been a perfect vacuum.

This was close to a micro-Kelvin (10^ -6). There was still activity. This does not mean that clocks would slow down.

I know about the Bose-Einstein Condensate, but I fail to see how it has any bearing. The activity of the atoms was very slow. It would be interesting to perform an experiment of this nature on a radioactive molecule and seeing how it affected the half-life or doing the same on an atomic clock. I have not really thought this scenario through yet, as I just thought of it, so it may be a rather poor idea.

Man invented the means to measure time, but to say the concept of time is a fabrication is erroneous.

If there is no relationship I expect there to be incontrovertible proof to corroborate. You have not yet met the burden of proof to say there is no relationship.
