You can take a look at the sources of vzcalc here:
http://git.openvz.org/?p=vzctl;a=blob;f=src/vzcalc.c;h=073add43e95f173fbe8ffb9e9e4ada405cbf4d51;hb=HEAD
As you can see it is based on the formulas explained in the following article:

At the first glance this utility just checks systemwide configuration. However 
I tend to agree that "promised" is misleading word here.
