"dmesg" counts down the number of remaining "jobs".
are you sure? here is a snippet of dmesg from a balance i did
yesterday (2.6.38.1)

btrfs: relocating block group 15338569728 flags 9
btrfs: found 17296 extents
btrfs: found 17296 extents
btrfs: relocating block group 13191086080 flags 9

btrfs: found 21029 extents
btrfs: relocating block group 11043602432 flags 9
btrfs: found 4728 extents

    Count the number of block groups in the system (1GiB for data,
256MiB for metdata on a typical filesystem), and subtract the number
of "relocating block group" messages... Not ideal, but it's possible.

    The balance cancel patch I mentioned earlier also supplies an
additional patch for monitoring progress, which does show up in the
dmesg output (as well as user-space support for prettier output).
Great, I think it is very important to have a human-readable progress monitor for operations like that.
    Hugo.
