It does sound like your accumulator is at fault. I changed mine a couple of months back for the same reason - 40 seconds to reach pressure from start up & was running every second brake application, although my brakes seemed fine but leave it & your pump will eventually burn out which is a whole lot more expensive to replace. The accumulators are a known failure item (the nitrogen charge wont last forever) but are easy to replace.
P38 part.What is this and what does it do????

With ignition OFF. Pump brake up to 30 times to ensure all pressure is gone. Unscrew accumulator dip your finger in the hole it came from and lube the O'ring on the new unit screw on nip up. Switch on and see the difference. No need to bleed system.
