Single Particle Tomography in EMAN2

Unfortunately, this technique SPT is very computationally intensive (both in terms of memory and processing speed). 3GB of RAM is the bare minimum recommended to get through the tutorial. For more realistic SPT on full 3D alignments on large sets of large particles particles, 8GB of memory and the use of multiple processing units is advised.
