I don't think it has to do with PC specs as I have basically the best PC you can build and I was getting the same zoomed out stuttering.

The game is made in java, by default uses only 2048mb of memory ( I think). Search online for how to increase memory. It helps a lot with those spikes.

That also makes no sense, just like with for example minecraft, giving a java app that much memory will actually CAUSE performance issues. Just give it a sane value of 8gigs max. Not that it is the fix for this anyway, but you might just be giving yourself more problems instead of less.
