We propose to store several integers modulo a small prime into a single machine word. Modular addition is performed by addition and possibly subtraction of a word containing several times the modulo. Modular Multiplication is not directly accessible but modular dot product can be performed by an integer multiplication by the reverse integer. Modular multiplication by a word containing a single residue is a also possible. Therefore matrix multiplication can be performed on such a compressed storage. We here give bounds on the sizes of primes and matrices for which such a compression is possible. We also explicit the details of the required compressed arithmetic routines.
