Reduces the pedal pressure required by the driver to produce any given amount
of force input (the input hydraulic pressure). EG the engine inlet vacuum
pulls upon a diapragm to save the drivers calf muscles when he/she presses
the brake pedal.
The servo has absolutely NO effect on increasing the efficiency of the brake
system - that is dictated by the respective differences in size between
master and slave cylinders.
