I've tried to install a Debian Wheezy instance onto an 8 GiB
logical volume via debootstrap(8) from Debian Squeeze (Linux
2.6.32-5-amd64, nilfs-tools 2.0.18-2) and have witnessed pretty
much the same behavior.

I've restarted nilfs_cleanerd(8) with the protection period set
to only 60 seconds (see below; the rest of the configuration is
as per the Debian defaults), and the free space began to rise,
albeit somewhat slowly (around a few MiB's per second), until it
reached 1.7 GiB, when it's stopped.
(I guess that it's quite normal, though I'm yet to become
familiar with NILFS2.)
