I recently read the statement that near the Earth, in the Newtonian weak gravitational field, gravity is 99.9999% mainly due to "curvature of time" (ie gravitational time dilation), and only about 0.0001% due to the warping of space. Unfortunately there was no derivation of these values. I'd be interested how you calculate these percentages. What would be the (small) gravitational redshift derived from these data?
