That may be dumb, but are you sure that you reset your global data structures before or after your free function call. When using the class approach, your cleanup is automatic, but you may have forgotten something when switching to globals.

Probably that you're not running the code that you think you are. There should be no difference between member function and free function in this case, unless you're not telling us something.
FWIW, I also don't have any performance problems when using free functions, and I'd tend to agree with troy.
