The Sith Empire.
I mean, the Rakatans, for all their spread-outness, had only a few hundred worlds and hyperdrives that had trouble targeting any place that wasn't force rich.
The Sith Empire has at least hundreds of thousands to millions of worlds (a lot of them puny, but still).
The Rakatans have good production for an empire their size, but they lack the armies, ship crews, and so on needed.

Are there any calcs for a Harrower class? I remember seeing a ship from the Sith empire blasting a planet and it only took out a city.
Here's the thing: Calcs for... well, anything in SW, jump all around the place.
Rakatans tried bombardment during the Force Wars with Tython. It sure as heck was no Teratons, and Tython was able to fight their ships with it's pre-republic tech vessels.
Harrowers were the strongest vessels ever built when they came online (baring perhaps one-off super flagships), surpassing the vessels Revan made with the Rakatan Star Forge.
But the Rakatan ships designs were most likely lost, and the here's the scan I'm talking about:
That's a big light effect and all, but there's also the matter we saw shots hit the ground. The Je'daii temples are intact, the forests are still there, etc.. That's certainly an artistic license thing, just like the orbital ring around Dac in the comics being visible and looking sizable next to the planet (and the artists even admitted it, noting it'd be really boring to draw a tiny barely-visible line. Same artist even!).
And there is still the matter that the Je'daii craft could fight them off, and they didn't have fancy force tech, they were just the ships of the time.

Rakatan slaughterhouse. Malgus even said there technology makes his look primitive. They have the Foundry, the Star Forge, the Terraforming space station, and another one.It would be like the United States vs a small ancient Germanic Tribe.
