About 2 hours 10 minutes into the balance, it was still going, with:

Data: total=30.85GB, used=10.06GB
System: total=4.00MB, used=16.00KB
Metadata: total=1.01GB, used=909.16MB

Stream of -28 errors continues non-stop in dmesg;

At ~2hr20min looks like it decided to allocate some more space for metadata:

Data: total=30.85GB, used=10.01GB
System: total=4.00MB, used=16.00KB
Metadata: total=2.01GB, used=748.56MB

And shortly after (~ 2hr25min) it was done. After the balance:

Data: total=29.85GB, used=10.01GB
System: total=4.00MB, used=16.00KB
Metadata: total=2.01GB, used=748.27MB
