Learn English – prefix for “infinite”

mathematicsnumbersprefixes

I was looking for a prefix I could prepend to a word to mean an infinite amount of the thing the word describes. I eventually found someone with the same question, and since there were no answers, I offered a "close enough" one. But I got curious and tried to research some more. I didn't find a good list of amount-related prefixes (Wikipedia has an article on number prefixes, though), so I built one. But I found no prefix for infinity. Is there one?

infinito- perhaps? The OED defines it as:

combining form from Latin infīnīt-us infinite adj., adv., and n., used in the sense ‘infinitely, to an infinite degree’: as in infinito-infinitesimal
