Have to agree with dieseldan44. If it's going to go bad. Do it while I'm not driving down the highway or in a panic stop situation.
Another consideration. If the other brake parts are failing due to age, old rubber, etc. Then the booster is not far behind.
But you may have made an interesting observation.
