I am guessing you have each one of these clusters in a separate partition. How big are these clusters? You can turn off the communication by just set up the treewidth to the number of nodes in you system.
Is there any reason you don't want to/can't use the multi cluster functionality, and operate in traditional SLURM fashion with 1 slurmctld per cluster?
