As I understand the servo, vacuum pressure is applied to both sides of the
piston. It is atmospheric pressure that creates the "boost". Does the
boost really vary with the amount of vacuum or is it a function of atmospheric
pressure?

I would check the non return valve of the servo. The brake force should
be max when you slow down on the engine creating max. vacuum.
