Mine would act like Brian's, if I left it for 8 hours I didn't have much clutch 
action. On mine the master was leaking ever so slightly. I wrapped the whole 
master in paper towels to find the leak.

I forget how we determined the master was the problem 3 years ago.
But, the symptom was that when pedal down, clutch would engage after
10 seconds, so I had to plan ahead.  That was the master.  I think the
master can lead past the seals internally, back up to the brake
reservoir, no?  Then a year ago we replaced the slave cylinder - one
night drove in the driveway fine, next morning - zero clutch - leakage
at slave.
