Sounds like completely typical symptoms of a somewhat worn and out-of-spec oil pump that takes a while to prime if it has drained enough to lose its prime. Without oil, the vane style vac pump will not work. Because of the loose oil pump clearance, revving it is required to finally get the pump to prime itself. It then pumps oil to the vac pump and your brake vacuum assist works. Simple as that.
