Not infinite. Converts organized matter into other organized matter. You could put a person in one side and pop a cheeseburger out the other but once the mass of the person is gone you aren't getting anymore cheeseburgers.

Infinite loop detected: conservation of mass applies to cycles too as long as nuclear reactions don’t get involved.
