AWS EC2 network and Disk performance metrics interpretations?

I am trying to figure out slow speed of our website for which looking at EC2 performance. I have a t2.medium instance. CPU metrics are good but I am not able to infer anything from the network metrics.

EC2 Network Metrics Above graphs show network usage but I am unable to find the network usage limit for t2.medium instance. At some places I have read that AWS doesn't impose any limit on this, in such a scenario what insights regarding website speed I can get from above?

Also, I am using EBS as root device type. Since the 'Burst Balance' is always 100% can I assume that there is no bottleneck here?

Check CPU credit balance. You said "CPU metrics" but it's worth verifying that you considered this one. – Michael - sqlbot
Yes, by "CPU metrics" I meant CPU Utilization, CPU Credit Usage and CPU Credit Balance. – Sid

With regards to network performance, I believe there is a pretty extensive explanation in this question: EC2 Instance Types's EXACT Network Performance?

With regards to the Burst Balance, yes, having it at 100% means you have not hit any limits there. That's what the docs say and this is what their announcement also explained.
