Previously I did the same thing to btrfs-debugfs, it works good,
but since it's python script, and if your system doesn't have
python installed, then you need a binary.

This aims to decide whether a balance can reduce the number of
data block groups and if it is, this shows the '-dvrange' block
group's objectid.

With this, you can run
'btrfs balance start -c mnt' or 'btrfs balance start --check-only mnt'

--------------------------------------------------------------
$ btrfs balance start -c /mnt/btrfs
Checking data block group...
block_group        12582912 (len     8388608 used      786432)
block_group      1103101952 (len  1073741824 used   536870912)
block_group      2176843776 (len  1073741824 used  1073741824)
total_free 544473088 min_used bg 12582912 has (min_used 786432 free 7602176)
run btrfs balance start -dvrange=12582912..12582913 your_mnt

$ btrfs balance start -dvrange=12582912..12582913 /mnt/btrfs
Done, had to relocate 1 out of 5 chunks

$ btrfs balance start -c /mnt/btrfs
Checking data block group...
block_group      1103101952 (len  1073741824 used   537395200)
block_group      2176843776 (len  1073741824 used  1073741824)
total_free 536346624 min_used bg 1103101952 has (min_used 537395200 free 536346624)
--------------------------------------------------------------

So you now know how to babysit your btrfs in a smart way.
