So MW2 runs at 75+ FPS on my system on a 1440x900 resolution and 2x AA. But sometimes my performance drops down to 19-2FPS for no reason... What's happening? All my other games are running fine, it's just MW2...

It's probably a VRAM leak. Try turning down your texture settings a bit.

I think it may be all of the above. Bugs, Rejecting crap and RAM leak. Yes there seems to be a leak, Task Manager shows that it's eating 2.2GB of RAM only on the game with the rest used on the OS and other background programs... It has gone as low as having only 50MB of RAM left. Though I still want to finish the campaign at least.

What did you expect from a direct console port?
