I'd bet on the booster. Mine did the same before going away rapidly.
Time for a brake system upgrade in general? If you have not done so, you may be driving on 35 year old components, especially those 3 rubber flex hoses that the brake people never replace, ever? Sorry if you've heard that one before, but I keep meeting people that seem to think that they'll wait till they have a problem before redoing stuff 'cause "it's working so why bother". Not that anyone on the well-informed IML would do such a thing....
Better look into that booster soon. If it goes out, your car will take both feet to stop manually, and twice the distance.
The good news is that removal can be done by the average person if they look closely at how things are bolted together, and this part may be not such a pain to find. There is no adjustment or anything else besides proper re-installation to do you in, just remember what you did on the way out and reverse the procedure and you'll do fine.
