Lack Of Power On One Hill

I was pulling 10,000 # through the mountains and on one hill the truck slowed to 45 MPH. The pedal was to the floor , the boost was only 20# and the RPM was somewhere around 3000 RPM. I normally pull this load at 55 MPH on this hill.

Everything was back to normal on the remaining hills with boost over 30# and normal downshifting.

What would cause the low boost and lack of a downshift?
