I create 5 snapshots of 5 different subvolumes every 5 minutes, and the
system is low on memory:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 745 712 33 0 0 480
-/+ buffers/cache: 231 514
Swap: 0 0 0
There is ample space on the fileystem:
panda:~# df -h /
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/ata-INTEL_SSDSA2CW600G3_CVPR112405AJ600FGN 1.1T 17G 1.1T 2% /
panda:~# btrfs filesystem df /
Data, RAID0: total=24.00GB, used=15.69GB
System, RAID1: total=64.00MB, used=12.00KB
System: total=4.00MB, used=0.00
Metadata, RAID1: total=23.00GB, used=231.26MB
Do you need more information?

Will do. It is the / filesystem, so I'll need to reboot.

There was none after the first reboot, but I'll pay extra attention to
that after the next reboot.

Do I need newer tools for that? This is Debian Sid (unstable):
Btrfs Btrfs v0.19
panda:~# btrfs filesystem balance status /
ERROR: 'filesystem balance' requires 1 arg(s)
panda:~# btrfs balance status /
ERROR: unknown command 'balance'
