On another run with -duage=95, I am now seeing the following (negative 
percentage left value!)

Every 15.0s: sh -c date;btrfs balance status -v /       Wed Jun 24 
12:29:12 2015

Wed Jun 24 12:29:12 CDT 2015
Balance on '/' is running
306 out of about 145 chunks balanced (312 considered), -111% left
Dumping filters: flags 0x1, state 0x1, force is off
   DATA (flags 0x2): balancing, usage=95
