Ten years of their free development of the infrastructure surrounding nukes and everything but centrifuges and enrichment, along with ten years of pumping resources into them from oil profits.
Would it be easier to pressure Iran with sanctions, spycraft, assassination, hacking and military force now, or after their program is well established? It would be a lot harder to pick apart.
The Saudis aren't developing nukes and won't need to. As soon as Iran is nuclear armed, Saudi Arabia gets its nukes from Pakistan, that's the old myth everyone repeats and its probably true. But then what happens with the rest of the middle east?
The Israelis have good reason to want to be meat shields rather than watch nukes crop up in every arab and persian country
I can see the campaign ad:
Why wait 10 years? Let's go to war with Iran now. Trump 2020.

The Iran Deal is complete shit for everyone except Iran as is. It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world for Trump to make good and just reinstate the sanctions but it wouldn't shock me to discover this is saber rattling to renegotiate a more favorable deal.
If he wanted to renegotiate he would've stayed in the deal. The next president will have to clean up his mess.
