Why is the Java GC so garbage?

It is 2016, why does Java still shit itself like a baby if you try to serve a non-toy amount of traffic with it without tuning your garbage collector settings yourself like some sort of caveman?

Is it so hard to set defaults that don't randomly freeze like a deer caught in the headlights at the sight of multiple qps?

Only if you're an idiot.

A variable is a designated area of RAM

Variables have nothing to do with RAM. I already told you that imperative languages have one example of a variable - the function parameters, but you couldn't even understand that. Or maybe you are numbskull enough to believe that function parameters are pieces of memory. Either way, off to sweep the streets and take out people's trash you go, ignoramus. You have no place anywhere near a compiler.
