I use walnuts, myself.

Why not? Same process except for the brown husks which walnuts don't
have.
I would prefer almonds as I love the flavor and it goes so well with
pumpkin.

I love the way the walnuts taste with my pumpkin pie and my cheesecake,
since I have friends who don't like almonds, I haven't tried those.

I just use plain ole walnuts. I grind up about four cups walnut halves in
the food processor until it resembles graham cracker crumbs. Then I
measure
out two cups of ground walnut

Does the 4 cups of halves grind down to 2 cups of meal, or is there lots
left over?

It grinds down to right around 2 cups, maybe a tich more. I use the tich
more to coat the inside of my springform pan like you would with graham
cracker crumbs.
