You could also look at the output of sudo btrfs filesystem usage /mnt/tmp. It should you how the data/metadata is distributed on each device.

@rickhg12hs, yes, I created the filesystems with mkfs.btrfs --data raid1 --metadata raid1 /dev/... /dev/.... In contrast to the other commands, I don't have the mkfs commands recorded in a history file, anymore. However, I have some notes that feature that form and I even created one filesystem also with the --mixed switch which makes --metadata mandatory. (If not specified the command fails.) Since I wasn't sure whether metadata also defaults to raid1 or not if one only specifies --data raid1, I explicitly also specified --metadata raid1.
