How does time relate to mass and velocity.

In general Relativity:

I understand that the larger the mass the greater gravity is and the slower time is, as well the faster an object is traveling the slower time passes. My question is that since the faster an object travels the more mass it has, is the increase in mass the reason for the change in time, or is it the velocity?
