We believe that the universe is unbounded: this is not the same as infinite: the 2-D surface of a sphere, wrapped around a 3rd dimension, has a finite size, but has no end. If you start off in a given direction on the surface of a sphere, you could return to your start point without having to turn around -- you simply go all the way around. But wouldn't that mean the universe has an escape velocity like the earth?
You could say that her experience at The Artifact on Halo: Reach could qualify for the fact that Cortana was further developed using it, however thats as far as it gets, unless you constitute the information she has received. She should have reached Rampancy much earlier, considering the huge amount of data absorbed, potentially as much as 1.5Mx the amount a normal AI receives over a lifetime of 7 years.
