The above change means that the data space is now statically allocated
instead of dynamically allocated.

That's fine.

Since the data space is now statically allocated there's no need to use
either malloc or free. Delete all lines which do:

tuplemap = malloc(...);
tuplemap [n] = malloc(...);
free(tuplemap [n]);
free(tuplemap);

You can identify them very easily simply by looking at the output
messages from the compiler.
