Quill AFAIK *always* replays the schedd.log file to catchup. So even if
you wait for those 40k+ jobs to leave the system, as long as they're in
your job_queue.log file (which has the state changes from queued ->
running -> done) Quill is going to churn through them.

The only way I know of to do a complete wipe, reset and fast restart is:

Shut down Quill
Remove all the jobs from your system
Shut down all your schedds
Delete the spool/job_queue.log* files for each schedd
Restart your schedds
Restart Quill

Your cluster IDs will be back at 1 at every schedd after this. But it
all comes up in-sync.
