julia> PA = plan_sph_analysis(F);

julia> @time G = PS*(P*F);

Research direction

Start by reproducing the provided Julia 1.9.3 example with sphrandn, plan_sph2fourier, plan_sph_synthesis, and plan_sph_analysis. Trace the spherical harmonic transform path involved in PS*(P*F) and verify that the reproduction no longer causes a segmentation fault.
