Low boost until restart

I was driving and went to accelerate quickly and had no power, checked the boost gauge and it had very low boost. Continued like this the rest of the drive, all gauges normal, no check engine light, not towing or hot. Got home then next time out it was back to normal.

Someting to be concerned about? Or just a computer hiccup. Truck is '13 with 66k.

If it is working fine now and no check engine light I would not be too concerned. If it acts up again them it may be worth investigating further.
One thing that comes to mind that may have caused it is the Waste-gate or waste-gate solenoid.

you can scan for codes but more than likely you will not find anything.
